When the Wicked Liken God to Themselves

I just read one of the mostly profoundly wicked and stupid statements out of the mouth of a senior politician that I have ever seen.  Sadly we have come to expect this kind of thing from junior politicians of the left but in recent years it is the senior politicians who have most frequently behaved in this manner.  As they all plunge into the abyss of total and eternal oblivion, each one continues to tickle the ears of the others, encouraging and emboldening each other in wickedness and deceit.

In a report from America's CNN, as later commented on in "Church Militant"

(see here:  'Catholic' Kerry Hails Pope as Climate Saviour

https://www.churchmilitant.com/news/article/catholic-kerry-hails-pope-as-climate-savior), former U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry, stated:

"I believe that choice, a woman's choice, is between a woman, God and her doctor."

Kerry has labeled God, the Ever Living and Almighty Creator, as a partaker in decisions to murder unborn children.  Kerry has knowingly misrepresented God in a severe manner, made the Ever Living into the image of himself, one diametrically opposed to God's true nature, one with the heart of a murderer.  Kerry's statement was not merely a one-off, careless comment.  The same man, despite claiming he believes life begins at conception and despite claiming he is Catholic, has voted repeatedly in support of abortion.  He then praises the pagan false pope, Francis, for his stance on "climate change", and Francis does nothing to correct Kerry on his anti-Catholic stance on human life.  How can these men escape judgement?  Their own judgements and words condemn them, as also occurs with people like Hilary Clinton, Kamala Harris, the left in general and many others all over the world.  If they do not repent of their wickedness, they are utterly doomed.  We see here men seeking the praise of men rather than of God and, worse still, a man claiming to have faith in God yet directly blaspheming against God's true character in a manner rarely seen before.

I point this out not to specifically isolate the two men mentioned as being especially wicked but to show an example of just where most of humanity has gone and continues to go.  Such statements and deceit would not be openly admitted in a world where the majority of people were not completely deluded and were opposed to such evil.  The strong delusion, also referred to as "a working of error", spoken of by Paul and Timothy (2 Thessalonians 2:11) is certainly in full force now.  Just as the Spirit of God is poured out in the last days as the latter rains upon the elect, so, too, has strong delusion come upon the damned.  The effect of the latter rains is to bring a crop to full maturity, the weeds ready to be separated from the good crop and burned, and the wheat ready for harvesting.

Mark 13:37  And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

The Death Toll Will Rise

This will be a short post.  All I want to point out is that the "pandemic" is not going to be the only cause of mass death.  The "vaccines" will compete for first place!  The reason is simple.  Even if the virus was the product of human meddling, many more deaths must come directly by the hand of man.  This is because it has been by the hand of man that tens of millions of infants have been murdered, and in addition to that, many have been used for the production of medical items, including the so-called "vaccines".  So, the very system for the mass-murder of (mostly unborn) infants has become the root of a system for the mass-murder of the beneficiaries of the proceeds of that crime... all the rest of humanity... whether we are directly guilty or not.  Since we have neglected our duty to work against the monstrous slaughter-machines, such as "Planned Parenthood" and others, who then have profited from murder and whose products, the proceeds of crime, went on to benefit the large pharmaceutical companies and all who have gained from that, whether financially or in other ways, the blood of millions upon millions of human beings is upon us all to one degree or another.

Those of us who now realise the extent of this diabolical scam must now repent and seek God's forgiveness, and then work to completely avoid the use of anything that has come out of that industrial-scale murder machine and we must also work to deter others from investment in such companies and their affiliates or use of any and all products that were derived in any way or benefited in any way from the murder of human beings.  We must pray to bring them down to the dust but I know that judgement is taking place and the deaths will climb.  Though the mass-deluded-media will claim it is another dangerously mutated variety of the virus, we know it is not, but is actually the consequences of exposure to the existing virus or one of its minor mutations after the "vaccines" have had their effect.  This is precisely the situation that resulted in the deaths of all the animals tested with this kind of "vaccine" in the big pharma labs and all the symptoms are the same as the disease in an unvaccinated person but much more intense.

Whether or not God has mercy on humanity regarding this, I do not know, but pray that He does.

The Lord is My Shepherd

We have clearly entered the time of the end.  That much should be obvious.  The great storm is under way and will only intensify in the coming months and years.  Last night, I watched a video (linked below) published by Jonathan Cahn and if you are unaware of the things he has spoken of before then I suggest you have a look at previous messages he has published concerning the books he has written.  Anyway, here is the link to his most recent message:

Jonathan Cahn's Latest Prophetic Message - The Reign of Baal

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9hd9AIgmL4

As usual for external web pages, I list both a URL-linked title and the URL itself for convenience, which you can simply copy and paste, in case you have disabled links (which can be a wise choice in many situations these days).

This morning, the Lord directed me to read Psalm 23.  I generally do not know what the contents of these scripture references are because I do not have much of a capacity to memorise scripture labels -- rather I simply learn what is written there.  As always, it turned out to be scripture of great encouragement and value, especially as we now proceed to walk through the "valley of the shadow of death", and here is that psalm...

Psa 23  A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.  (2)  He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.  (3)  He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.  (4)  Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.  (5)  You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.  (6)  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

Note in verse four the phrase, "... your rod and your staff, they comfort me."  The rod refers to the Lord's leadership, for He is the Great King, our eternal shepherd, and His rule and direction ensure our safety when we abide in Him.  His staff is His provision for us, for all of our needs, physical and spiritual.  In recent times He has been reminding me to keep my focus upon Him, just as Peter did when walking on the water, for it was only when Peter's focus was distracted by the wild weather (yes, a storm) that his gaze turned away from the Lord, who is the answer to all our prayers, and Peter looked upon the chaos all around him, thus inducing fear, causing his faith to falter and he began to sink.  We must keep the Lord at the forefront of our thoughts in all that we think, say and do.  However, the Lord also showed us that, should we find ourselves sinking, we should immediately call upon Him, not waiting a moment longer.  The Lord has also consistently referred me back to His teachings admonishing us to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these "other things" will be added unto us, that is, all our needs will be met, rather than wasting our time and consuming ourselves in the pursuit of those other things which we need, for our Father in heaven knows exactly what we need before we even ask.

The psalm shows us that the Lord is our source of peace and tranquility, of certainty, of comfort, of protection, of guidance and of salvation and we need seek nothing else but Him.

So, read that psalm again, read it tonight before you fall asleep and again in the morning when you awaken, for it is a psalm of great comfort to us now, as we enter the valley of the shadow of death.

The Killer "Vaccines"

Here is an article I believe is important.  It reports on the likely relationship between the SARS-CoV-2 "vaccines" that use mRNA to induce the body to produce the virus spike proteins and the discovery, already as long ago as last year, that it appears that a major component of the virus which causes injury and death is the spike protein itself.

Could spike protein in Moderna, Pfizer vaccines cause blood clots, brain inflammation, and heart attacks?

https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/could-spike-in-vaccines-cause-blood-clots-brain-inflammation-and-heart-attacks

This means that the "vaccines" are, in fact, working like the virus to destroy human life.  I fear that we will not realise the true magnitude of the disaster that will follow for some time, but it is already a major disaster.  Those in government positions who have been pressuring people for the uptake of the "vaccines", knowing full well their novel and untested nature, must be held accountable for the possible millions of deaths that follow, for they also know the background of those treatments, how they were developed or tested using the tissue of murdered children.  I have little doubt, however, that a great deal of what happens will be covered up with claims of terrible mutant versions of the virus apparently causing the deaths, as I believe is already the case in numerous places.  However, according to Dr Michael Yeadon, a former Vice President and Chief Scientist at Pfizer, such severe mutants simply do not occur so easily and quickly because the mutations would have to be far too large and dramatic but such things have never been recorded.  When we develop immunity to an invading virus, it is not merely to a single viral component of the virus but is much broader and general so that we develop a resistance even to likely mutations.  This is something the mRNA treatments deny your immune system the opportunity to do and additionally, it would appear, work like the virus itself in causing severe and deadly conditions to arise in the cardiovascular system and the brain and many other organs.  I cannot overstate just how horrifying, abhorrent and profoundly Satanic this whole thing is!

So, what we may be witnessing is worldwide genocide in its early stages.  That may sound overly dramatic but consider what kind of people are in power and have enormous resources and wealth at their disposal, people who are deeply deluded and believe the devil's line that there are too many people on the planet, that the planet needs to be "saved" from them, because they are a "virus".  People like George Soros, Bill and Melinda Gates, the psychopathic bureaucrats at the UN and the megalomaniacal members of the WEF, along with those who pull the strings from behind the scenes, the international cabal of banksters, yes, the "moneychangers".

Something worth pointing out is that a person never behaves irrationally.  That is impossible and makes no sense.  A person (assuming he is not severely brain-damaged) cannot act in contradiction to his own "psychological or spiritual operating system", or "world view".  When a person's behaviour appears to be severely divergent from their claimed motives, you can be certain that their claimed motives are lies, regardless of whether they seem to genuinely believe their own stated motives or not.  One's actions are always precisely in accord with one's beliefs, no matter what is said.  When people become deeply corrupted in their soul so that their conscience no longer operates to dissuade them from their evil proclivities (a state the scriptures refer to as having a "seared conscience", like a thick and hard callous has formed as a result of persistent and repetitive damage) then they may eventually become unconscious of their own evil actions, with evil outcomes.  However, they are still responsible for their actions because, to become deceivers, they must first willingly choose to believe a lie, must be, first and foremost, self-deceived.  As a result, the words of the Lord ring true, as they invariably always do, "You shall know them by their fruit."  The scripture warns us not to rail against our own consciences, lest we become numb to our own guilt and end up on a path to total destruction.

The crime of the use of murdered infants for the development and/or testing of these mRNA treatments cannot be overstated, for in partaking of the proceeds of crime, one engages in the crime itself, and this crime is murder on an untold scale.  As I wrote in a post on the 8th of this month, "death begets death", for as you sow, so shall you reap.

The Power of the Enemy

A short while ago, over the period of a week ending about a week ago, three times in a row when I entered my garage there was a scorpion walking about on the concrete floor.  I wondered at this but did not delay long to destroy it in each instance.  Now, Australia is home to many undesirable creatures, having the most substantial stock of venomous creatures of any continent.  I regularly see, and deal with, the eastern brown snake, the second most venomous land snake on Earth.  Every year I see at least one, typically two or three, sometimes more.  I had a juvenile get inside my house once, finding it on the carpet of the living room floor one summer day.  More recently I have seen an increase in other snakes, such as a full grown and somewhat aggressive tiger snake in the front yard, among other such critters.  We also get many dangerous spiders.  Fortunately I do not have to deal with the Sydney funnel-web spider here in the south east of the country but we do have a lot of other little nasties to contend with.  My garage regularly fills up with red-back spiders.  I have become so used to their presence that I do not notice them very much any more, despite their potentially deadly venom.  In general they keep to themselves, making very strong and sticky webs and capturing whatever unfortunate bug or flying insect which happens to come along.  Each year, sometimes twice a year, I use "insect bombs" to wipe out the spider and insect population in the garage, only to find it full again within months.  What a nuisance!

It's rare to see scorpions here, though they are around, but they tend to stay outside, hiding among rocks and such.  When I lived in suburban Melbourne, on a couple of occasions over the eleven year period I spent in my last residence there, I found a scorpion in the bath room.  It baffled me as to how they get in.  These are small scorpions, about two inches long, perhaps a little longer, but I suspect still quite dangerous.

However, seeing a new scorpion, three times in a row in the garage where I now live in central Victoria, over the span of only one week, having only ever seen a single one here before, in the house, years ago and having been here over sixteen years now, seemed odd.  "Ah, just coincidence," I thought, but the Holy Spirit impressed on me to research the significance of the scorpion, so I did.

There are numerous mentions of a scorpion or scorpions in the bible, a number of them being the same reference to the incident when King Rehoboam, the son of King Solomon, was advised by his young (arrogant and inexperienced) advisers to impose undue burdens upon the people, threatening them with scorpions rather than whips (1Ki 12:11, 1Ki 12:14, 2Ch 10:11, 2Ch 10:14).  The meaning taken here is a type of knotted whip rather than a simple whip, as per the Strong's reference to the word (H6137).  The same word is used in other old testament references to the scorpion without implying a whip of any kind so we see the word literally means scorpion and is used both literally and figuratively.

H6137    עַקְרָב    ‛aqrâb    ak-rawb'

Of uncertain derivation; a scorpion; figuratively a scourge or knotted whip: - scorpion.

It is one reference made to the scorpion by the Lord, Himself, that seems of the most value in this situation:

Luk 10:19  Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

The Greek word for scorpion in Strong's concordance is as follows:

G4651    σκορπίος    skorpios    skor-pee'-os

Probably from σκέρπω skerpō, an obsolete word, (perhaps strengthened from the base of G4649 and meaning to pierce); a scorpion (from its sting): - scorpion.

So then, the word for scorpion is related to the word meaning to pierce.  Scorpions pierce and inject venom, likewise also do serpents, so the power of serpents and scorpions refers to the power of the enemy which is, parabolically, to pierce and inject venom.  Smacks of the recent global "vaccination" program, doesn't it?  Although that is a literal interpretation it is no less meaningful than a figurative interpretation, for all that is true in the physical is parabolic of that which is true in the spiritual.  For the enemy to pierce and envenomate can mean that the enemy penetrates a person's soul with deception and temptation leading to sin and, through the power of sin, he brings death.  Venom is really the doctrines of the devil, the lies of Satan, things we now hear so much of among those who call themselves "progressive" and "woke", among others.  However, one can only be poisoned by the venom of the scorpion, that is, the doctrine of the devil, if one receives it by succumbing to temptation leading to sin.

This event of an attempt by the godless to pierce and envenomate the entire human population is parabolic of something deeper, that is the fact that the whole world is under the power of deception, blinded to the truth by the power of the enemy.  It perhaps also relates to the scripture in Revelation 9 in some way, maybe in that the prophecy of scripture is warning us about something of the nature of this recent vaccination program in the future, something utterly diabolical, worse than anything now occurring, but that's only speculative at this point.  The entire past century has been a process of envenomation of people and societies all around the world, indoctrination with the ways of wickedness, steering mankind onto the path of destruction under the influence of strong delusion born of the rejection of the biblical account of creation, because the enemy is angry for he knows that his time is short and you can be certain that he means to take down as many souls with him as possible to eternal destruction, such is his hatred of the image of God on the Earth.

Be certain, though, that those in the Lord Yeshua, under the blood of the Lamb of God, in the ark of the eternal covenant, have power to "tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you."  Though they be subjected to powerful forces of influence, even under duress, to accept the doctrines of demons, such venom will by no means hurt them.

Fear not man who has power only to destroy the body, for his days are as the grass, one day green, the next yellow, the next nothing more than the smoke of a smouldering fire.  Fear only God who has power to destroy both body and soul in Gehenna, and worship and serve Him only.

A video that may be worth watching.

I do not often post links to videos, very rarely in fact, but this one I thought worth suggesting.

The Rise of Totalitarianism in the West - Lessons from Survivors of Soviet Persecution

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iuXzRkgvdE

One of the interesting things to note is the mention of how there has been a notable increase in people seriously considering Christianity as a result of the wickedness and demonic madness they see going on around them, especially as they recognise its irrationality and despotic totalitarian nature.  I have noticed the same thing, in particular on commentary on others' blogs, comments under videos, etc., wherever people can find a place to express a concern without the threat of direct physical attack.  This is even appearing among many younger people who (despite having been denied a proper historical education by a dumbed-down education system perverted to teach all the woke nonsense we now cannot stop hearing about) are recognising something is deeply and seriously wrong with our western culture.  Of course, to those of us who are older and have seen more of what the world is really like due to our longer time on this planet, it seems obvious, but consider carefully how difficult that may be for a young person who, without any significant real world, real life experience, is highly susceptible to using some kind of ideology as a substitute for that lack of experience.  All worldly ideologies are overly simplistic and born of the deep ignorance, arrogance, selfishness and bigotry of their progenitors and when such ideas become the world view of a young, inexperienced, easily emotionally manipulated person whose lack of humility makes him prone to committing wicked acts then we have a recipe for another totalitarian disaster like those of the first half of the 20th century but on a never before seen global scale.

Do not be afraid to confront evil and lies with the truth.  The world needs it now more than ever before.  It will be a hard road, but one worth taking, for every other road is a road to damnation.

Unto God be the Glory

Do not be deceived!  Those wicked at work in the world, obeying the spirit in them, Satan, working all manner of evil unto the destruction of humanity, shall bring upon themselves the fruits of their own labours.  They sow the wind, they shall reap the whirlwind.  They sow death, death shall they reap, and heap upon themselves all the fear, suffering and terror they bring into this world.  There is no escape for the unrepentant wicked, none whatsoever.  Accounts will be cleared, justice will be served.

With God, there is no shadow of turning, no distortion of perspective, no lack of knowledge and wisdom, no shortness of sight, no diminishing of light and no uncertainty but to do as He wills and as He has always willed.

Glorify not foolish mankind, glorify not his technology, his worldly so-called "wisdom" which is truly utter foolishness, nor his puny understanding, for he is full of fear and dread, fear of death and dread of judgement, and seeks to lengthen his days indefinitely without the right to life that comes only through Yeshua the Christ from the Ever Living God.  FOOLISH MANKIND!!!

Eph 3:20-21  Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us,  (21)  to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

I pray that the Spirit of the Ever Living God be with you always, that you stand your ground upon His high mountain fortress, even unto the end, so that you receive your crown of everlasting life, amen.

The article linked below is an interview with Dr. Michael Yeadon, former Vice President and Chief Scientist for Allergy & Respiratory at Pfizer.  I have watched several videos he has published over the past year and, like many others, he is desperately trying to get his important message out to the masses, but is, like others, being systematically censored out of public perception.  However, he has now taken on a much more serious tone than before, now that he sees, at least in part, what so many of us have been shouting about for so long.  What is happening is no accident, it is quite intentional.  Whether or not there is any central person who has a full view of the entire plot remains to be seen but such would be the son of perdition.  I suspect most of the corrupt individuals involved really only see what they want to see.

EXCLUSIVE - Former Pfizer VP: ‘Your government is lying to you in a way that could lead to your death.’

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/exclusive-former-pfizer-vp-your-government-is-lying-to-you-in-a-way-that-could-lead-to-your-death

Understand that we are in a trap that has been sprung upon us, but those truly walking with God, though they may face fearful or terrifying things or even death, know that they have eternal life ahead.  However, for those who profit from death, death begets death.

All storms pass, eventually, and despite being the worst in history (and we haven't even seen anything yet), this one is no different.  It, too, will pass, along with all the wicked.  Glorify God and Yeshua the Christ and serve Him only.

Come Out of Babylon

Just a quick post...

Have a look at this on Gab:

Why The Oligarchs Fear Christianity

https://news.gab.com/2021/02/25/why-the-oligarchs-fear-christianity/

I do not necessarily agree with every stated point, specifically in that it is not only an American oligarchic regime behind all the evil going on but, rather, that it is a global one.   However, I do fully agree that we need to remove ourselves from being our own worst enemies because, by funding the businesses of the Satanic self-appointed overlords, we fund our own demise.  By watching their television programs and movies, we create our own destitute future.  By giving heed to anything they say that attempts to dismiss the truth of scripture we destroy our own souls.  We must be conscious of this creeping destruction of the Christian worldview, destruction of the understanding of the truth, a creeping disease in the minds of the many, and resist it, call it out at every turn, expose it for what it is; lies!  Take your side, and take your sword, along with God's full armour.

The scripture that immediately came back to mind when I read that above-linked page was this:

Rev 18:4  And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her (Babylon), my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

That speaks volumes... let's do as the Lord has commanded us.  Of course, we must still interact with the world, but we needn't partake of its "delicacies", its sins.

Why the WEF Chose Marxism/Socialism/Communism

Did the WEF choose a global socialist/communist (i.e. Marxist) model because it is effective at ensuring the welfare of all people?

Of course not!

The WEF chose Marxism because it is the most effective killing machine in the history of mankind.  Nothing else even comes close to the effectiveness of this as a means of mass murder without the self-appointed leaders being threatened in any way, and the only thing that could potentially exceed it, not in numbers killed but in the speed of killing millions upon millions, is a global nuclear war.  However, nuclear war leaves the oligarchs with nothing.  They want a slave race to serve them, to serve their every need, to maintain all their property and possession, farm for them and even provide a supply of human organs as those wicked age and need "upgrades".  Global nuclear war would leave them nothing useful although for the rest of us it is, between the two alternatives, the better choice.

Remember, those people are global mass depopulation zealots.  Socialism has been the most effective tool of mass murder in the history of the world, bar none!  That is why the WEF choose a socialist model, to keep them wealthy, powerful and completely unaccountable and simultaneously wipe out most of the rest of humanity, save for a 500 million or less slave race.  When the Lord returns, they are in for a terrifying shock and, unless they repent before the two witnesses are resurrected, there is no hope for them or those who ultimately comply with their demands, for their goal is to enslave all humanity to themselves, ultimately to Satan for that is their spirit.  Such enslavement is precisely the purpose of the "mark of the beast".  We see the idea behind that mark developing already in the early form of "COVID-19 vaccine passports".

It is sad that humanity must be brought to its knees in order to bring it to repentance toward God but that is what we are coming to, though most will not repent, but God will not sacrifice even one soul that can still repent and He will squeeze the world, as one squeezes a tube of paste, to obtain every last bit of that valuable substance hidden inside.  He will lose nothing worth saving but He will destroy all that is worthless.

Say NO to the sons of Satan and YES to the Son of the Ever Living God, Yeshua the Christ, our saviour and eternal king and the soon-to-return king of all the earth and all creation.

Do You Fear Man or God?

Since discovering, some time during last year, that the so-called "vaccines" against the SARS-CoV-2 virus have been either created or tested using the cell lines of aborted unborn infants, I have had only this to say to people: "How can a society which seeks to benefit and extend the lives of the old and wicked by robbing the young and innocent of their lives expect to continue indefinitely?  Clearly, it cannot.  It must die.  God will judge the world for this crime."

Ask yourself, if you have not done so already, "Given the plethora of cheap, safe, long-used, orally-taken medicines that have clearly become available as very effective treatments for people suffering from COVID-19, why do so many governments, in particular western governments, ban them, obstruct them, and forcibly insist on the use of injected vaccines tainted by the spilled blood of murdered infants?"  I would not drink such a thing, let alone inject it directly into my blood, "... for the life of the flesh is in the blood." (Leviticus 17:11).  It is nothing less than injecting death directly into one's blood.  Additionally, the death rate of infected people is no more serious that a bad flu season and is certainly not worthy of being labeled a "pandemic".  It does seem more like a "plandemic" in my opinion.

One cannot claim to be opposed to murder (which is precisely what abortion is) and then accept such a "vaccine" (which is not even a true vaccine but they are all gene therapy treatments, all experimental, none having been properly tested for efficacy and safety, but that is beside the point) for to use such a treatment is to consent to the murder of innocent children for your own benefit; it is to gain life from the proceeds of the crime of murder.  It does not matter that the innocent would be murdered anyway.  The very act of taking such a treatment effectively "legitimises" murder, though that is always impossible in reality.  Not only is it murder, but it is idolatry, for the murder of the unborn (and now even the newborn) is invariably the result of sacrifice to the "god" of convenience and, more and more so, the environmental "gods".  All sin is idolatry in the end.

I cannot think of a more hideous and horrific crime... murdering the innocent to extend the lives of the guilty, robbing the innocent of their flesh so that the wicked can live longer.  This crime has been going on for some considerable time in the form of organ "harvesting" from organ donors who are yet capable of resuscitation, and even robbing imprisoned people of their lives and flesh for profit as happens under a certain communist regime, but the use of murdered innocent infants for the benefit of evil mankind is a level of wickedness formerly unimaginable.  On top of it all, we also have discovered that the practice of using the murdered unborn for the development of many products in the pharmaceutical industry has been going on a lot longer than anyone would care to admit.  This is truly astonishing! This is what mankind has come to, like a vampire that sucks the blood of the innocent to extend its worthless life, to stave off eternal damnation just a short while longer, though to do so forever is impossible.  All mankind must face judgement.

So why do governments seek to force all to submit to this horrific crime?  It is simple... from the government perspective it legitimises, in their eyes, the murder of the unborn but from Satan's perspective it lays the bloodguilt of murdered children upon all humanity, to taint all mankind with the sin of murder, for to partake of the proceeds of a crime is to partake in the crime itself.  This is the beginning of the clear separation of mankind into two groups: those who wisely fear God and those who foolishly do not.  In allowing such a thing to occur, God has ensured that the wicked cannot escape their judgement, because, with this and other similarly horrific, yet still worse, things to come, the full measure of the sin of mankind will be quickly reached.  We really are in the last days of the last days, the final years of this corrupt world.  I have a sneaking suspicion that before the end of next year, 2022, we will see the onset of cataclysms that nobody would ever have expected to see outside of a movie theatre.  The blood of tens of millions of innocent children is crying out from the ground, its cry reaching to the heavens, to the ear of God.  The world is ripe for judgement.

So, do you fear man or God?  To whom will you bow, and against whom will you stand?  Who do you ultimately serve?

The Mark of the Beast is NOT Sunday Worship

It appears necessary to refine an issue regarding the nature of the mark of the beast.  Specifically, the Seventh Day Adventist Church (SDAC) claims that the "mark" of the beast is Sunday worship.  This is a result of their fixation with an old view that the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) is the whore of Babylon and because the RCC removed one of the ten commandments, regarding the command not to make an image of any idol, and split the final commandment, regarding coveting that which belongs to another, into two commandments in order to make up the ten.  This, they say, constitutes the changing of times (Sunday worship instead of traditional Saturday - Sabbath) and laws (altering the commandments) as mentioned would occur in the book of Daniel, chapter 7.

In Revelation 13 we read:

Rev 13:16-17  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:  (17)  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

The Strong's concordance entries for the word, "mark", and associated root or source words are as follows:

G5480 χάραγμα    charagma    khar'-ag-mah

From the same as G5482; a scratch or etching, that is, stamp (as a badge of servitude), or sculptured figure (statue): - graven, mark.

G5482 χάραξ charax khar'-ax

From charasso (to sharpen to a point; akin to G1125 through the idea of scratching); a stake, that is, (by implication) a palisade or rampart (millitary mound for circumvallation in a siege): - trench.

G1125 γράφω graphō graf'-o

A primary verb; to grave, especially to write; figuratively to describe: - describe, write (-ing, -ten).

It is very clear from the meaning of the word used that an indelible mark, as in one that is written or engraved or stamped, is being referred to.  This is why it is "received".  The act of Sunday worship does not fit such a description, whether literally or figuratively, since Sunday worship is not something one receives but is something one does, and it is not a mark that can be received in oneself, whether literally on the skin of the right hand or forehead, nor can it be a figurative description of choosing to worship on Sundays, for the act of Sunday worship is not a thing received but an action taken.  The claim that it is the "thought" of it that is a mark in the forehead or the act of working on the true Sabbath that is the mark in the right hand is stretching any idea of metaphor well beyond the ridiculous.  As evidence and a reason for eternal condemnation, which the mark will be, it must not be possible to change, it must be evident at all times and not only when it is convenient or on certain days of the week.  A person worshiping on Sunday who wishes not to do so may be under duress, oppressed by a government.  How would that stack up in court?  Well, it wouldn't, so it provides no ground for an accuser in the great court of God Almighty.  Everything done by the Lord is absolutely free of any, even the slightest, incertitude, and is absolutely legally perfect meeting every requirement of all the true law, for He will never condemn any person except that his own conscience has already condemned him clearly and unambiguously.  Thus has God warned us, that by our own words we are justified and by our own words we are condemned and that we will be judged by our own measures of others for such measures are expressed by our words, words of accusation and condemnation.  Do not judge, whether in word or thought or deed, and you will not be judged.  That is tough and we will all be found to be hypocrites, yet God affords every soul a right to his own defence.  Ours is Christ.

Finally, how can anybody refuse to trade with a person who chooses not to worship on a Sunday?  How can such a bizarre idea be enforced?  How can anybody prove that you worship God on a Saturday and since when was it a requirement to worship God specifically on the day of rest, the Sabbath?  Doesn't a true believer continually worship God from the heart, in spirit and in truth, all the time?  Alternatively, could that person not be an atheist?  What if he is a pagan and worships the earth on "earth day" only once a year but does not take part in any other worship?  Doesn't the global false religion include all deities in one giant hodge-podge pantheon, with pagan idols, such as Gaia, being the chief gods of that pantheon?  Isn't that what the ecumenical movement merging with environmentalism is all about?  Surely atheists must also be accommodated in such a scheme!

No, Sunday worship is not the "mark of the beast", and the SDAC, just like every other so-called "Christian" church, has gone astray.  Many years ago, the Lord led me through various denominations, including the SDAC.  Personally, I was born to Catholic parents, not strict Catholics but Catholics nonetheless.  I have spent a little time in a few other denominations, also, and wondered why it was that I found no home among any of them.  Certainly I found true believers as well as many who pay lip service but I found no home.  The words of the Lord came back to me one day years after I quit searching; "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head."  Likewise, I think, it is also true for those who really have placed their trust in the Lord and do not look to mankind and this world for their home.  After all, we are merely sojourners in this corrupt and dying world.  Our eternal home is yet to come.

In considering why the SDAC makes such a claim, I wander off-topic here but I do so in order that a more complete picture of things becomes apparent, since all these issues are related to these final days and seeing how things connect helps us to perceive where we are in terms of God's plan.  Of course, this is only what I currently believe so take it all with a pinch of salt.

The SDAC, much like every other denomination, whether protestant or otherwise, has made the same old mistake of concluding that it was the true vessel of God's word.  The Lord reveals a thing, simply a single aspect, to a person or group of people, and they, having found this revelation to be true (with the SDAC it was the revelation that Friday sunset through to Saturday sunset was still the true Sabbath), they conclude that they are somehow special and above others, somehow closer to God, and hearing from Him correctly where others are not.  Man (not God) then, in his pride, creates a "church" on this basis and it becomes infused with the ways and traditions of men instead of revelation from God through His Spirit.  Any little thing the "chief prophet" has to say becomes sacrosanct and unquestionable.  In the RCC, the pope is the chief example of this, wherein the RCC claim is that the pope is infallible.  It is so ridiculous and laughable that it would be a bad joke except that so many deceive themselves into accepting it as truth.  Again, it is the problem of the "traditions of men".  Each denomination has some basis, some revelation, given to it that it has used as its claim to a monopoly of "the truth".  Consequently, none of them are the true Christian Church, the true Body of Christ, and it is the reason that they all differ on so many points.  They cannot all be correct.  Bear in mind that every single one of them can be traced back to the RCC at some point in the past, whether directly or indirectly, which is the reason they are all converging again, since the (spiritual) conditions in the world at the return of the Lord will be very much like those at His departure, including the presence of the true Christian Church as an organised entity in the world.  The RCC was the outcome of a state-corrupted Christian Church, after the true church had already been corrupted to some extent with the introduction and tolerance of Roman pagan ideas and celebrations.  The state simply made it all "official" and the RCC was born.  The true church, a group of scattered believers, now went out into the world, the "wilderness", and every "Christian" denomination will have a handful of true believers in it, as wanderers awaiting the return of their spiritual nation, whether they see it in their lifetime or not.  Just as physical Israel was in a diaspora, its people scattered among the nations (the wilderness) and has come back into existence as an existential entity, likewise will occur for spiritual Israel, which is the true Body of Christ.  This is the mission of the final manifestation of the "Elijah to come", for in "restoring all things", which is to restore all truth to the understanding of scripture and God's plan, all actual believers will recognise the truth and come out of the false churches and unite once again as the true Christian Church, whereupon can begin the final tribulation of the saints, the final great persecution of the true followers of Yeshua the Christ, most especially by those in the false churches who reject the message of the two witnesses and prefer the worldly church in which they partake.

The seemingly "dead tree", the lost Body of Christ, will come back to life, in a real sense resurrected, and the apparently "living tree", the global religion of the end, the whore of Babylon (a whore has many lovers which equates to many gods) perhaps headed up by the RCC in concert with the UNEP, will collapse as the world is split by this great earthquake, the coming of the two witnesses, among which is the final "Elijah" to come.  A question now is whether the final manifestation of the (first) beast will be under China's CCP or under the UN/EU/USA.  Could there be a merging of all these into one totalitarian socialist superstate?  How does the beast from the abyss, the other leg of the beast out of the many waters and the brotherhood of Islamic nations, play into this?  Time will tell.  These issues will gradually become more clear as we near the end.

As always, assume much of this is speculation, but do not assume that being speculation means it is incorrect.  Speculation means, simply, unproven beyond doubt or having incomplete evidence.  That I have touched upon many things with evidence already does not prove them true but does provide an impetus to be alert to what is going on regarding all the aforementioned entities.  As the Lord said, "Watch!"

More on the Mark of the Beast

Rev 13:15-18  And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.  (16)  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:  (17)  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.  (18)  Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

For a long time many have speculated about the meaning of the "mark of the beast".  I have touched on the topic in previous years and also more recently.  In this post, I wish to emphasise a point I made previously, that the "mark" need not be a complex device like a buried microchip or flexible circuit and, indeed, it need be nothing more than a simple identifier, a tattoo that fluoresces under a suitable light, as one possible example.

The mistake people often make when attempting to understand scripture is to "read between the lines" when there's really nothing there or, at least, nothing they think they can see.  We have a tendency to project onto unassailed mysteries our own understanding, built up from our own experiences and knowledge, which can lead to adding to the scripture that which it does not contain and missing that which it does contain.  This is a dangerous mistake to make but I see people making it all too often.  In that regard, I have also fallen into that trap on various occasions.  None of us are immune and the only immunity we can have is the understanding given to us by God through His Spirit.  Without that, we are lost in every sense of the word.

Strong's concordance on the word used at the beginning of each of those verses, the word, "And":

G2532    καί    kai    kahee

Apparently a primary particle, having a copulative and sometimes also a cumulative force; and, also, even, so, then, too, etc.; often used in connection (or composition) with other particles or small words: - and, also, both, but, even, for, if, indeed, likewise, moreover, or, so, that, then, therefore, when, yea, yet.

A cumulative force implies grouping things even if not normally connected and a copulative force implies that something does not merely add to a previous one (or to a group) but is intrinsically part of a previously noted thing.  This shows something being added to a previous item and, potentially, being an intrinsic part of the previous item, but it does not stipulate precisely the relationship between the two.  However, it is the word translated as, "that", which follows "And" in verse 17 which can make the difference in our understanding.

G2443 ἵνα   hina hin'-ah

Probably from the same as the former part of G1438 (through the demonstrative idea; compare G3588); in order that (denoting the purpose or the result): - albeit, because, to the intent (that), lest, so as, (so) that, (for) to. Compare G3363.

So, to make a long story short, there is nothing in the scripture that indicates the physical need for the mark in order to trade, but it only indicates that we will not be allowed to trade if we do not have the mark, regardless of whether that is enforced purely by lawful requirement or through a physical mechanism.

Note the words used at the beginning of verse 16 above, "And he causeth... ".  This is then added to by the words,  "And that..." at the beginning of verse 17.  Taken together we can read verses 16 and 17 as, "(16) And he causeth... (17) And (he also causeth) that...", or, "(16) And he causeth... (17) And (to also cause) that...", since the connective, "And" combined with the word, "that" (seemingly a conjunction in this case), in verse 17 is adding and conjoining (or indicating an existing union) to "things that he (the Beast) causeth", to denote either a consequence or an a-priori reason for what "he causeth", that is, an additional thing the beast causes as a product of the first thing he caused, being the intended purpose of the first cause which is the "mark."  I know that is a big mouthful but I suspect you understand the point I am making.

This shows us the purpose of forcing people to receive the mark, that nobody may buy or sell except the one with the mark.  This is made clear already in the translation of just about any version of the bible.  However, what it does not tell us is that the mark is somehow necessary for the mechanics of the transaction itself and therein is the error many have made, to assume that, without the mark, trade is not possible.  It only indicates enough to see that one is not allowed to trade except he that has the mark.  This can be merely a legally enforced requirement.  The "beast" only needs to demand that you have the mark if you are going to trade in its economic system.  One may still be able to trade in some form (such as bartering, for example, or illegally without the mark, though do not hope for these things since they are speculative) but not within the normal (legal) channels of commerce now controlled by a global superstate, the final full manifestation of "the beast".

To conclude, I can only say that it is not necessary that "the mark of the beast" be anything more complicated than a literal mark of some kind, such as a tattoo that fluoresces under infrared or ultraviolet light (making it easy to capture in an instant using modern digital image processing and suitable lighting), or perhaps some other elementary approach, but I cannot simply rule out the idea of an implanted integrated circuit of some kind, though having such a thing in the forehead seems unlikely since it would cause a visible protrusion or distortion of the surface of such a thin layer of skin over the bone.  It seems more likely to me that having an embedded electronic circuit required for the actual transaction process would simply be an option (sold easily under the guise of "convenience" and "security") to having some kind of electronic plastic card, but having the mark, as a tattoo normally invisible under ordinary light or in some other simple form, will be mandatory so that should you fail to produce that identifier then, regardless of your ability (or otherwise) to actually engage in trade, you will simply be denied the right to do so.  Such a mark can easily carry enough information to both identify the "beast" and yourself (perhaps by way of a global account number), but merely identifying the beast is itself enough to meet the criteria of the prophecy.  Although it could be, the mark need not be engaged as part of the mechanics of the actual trade.  One can see how easily this approach already fits with the goals of the Gates Foundation, the WHO and the UN.

The one thing to remember is that having "the mark of the beast" then identifies a person as the legal property of the "beast", which is easily understood if considering that a global superstate led by a satanic head will inevitably be socialist (or communist, though practically no different).  In such a system an individual is not sovereign, is without rights except those afforded it by the state (certainly, no God-given rights will be tolerated under such a regime since God would be utterly denied) and, like all other capital, is the property of the state.  Since such a state that attempts to usurp God as the highest authority will be destroyed, so, too, all its property.

The Image of the Beast

There is much hype these days about what the "image of the beast" really is.  In previous posts I have clearly outlined what that expression refers to, the UN, including supporting historicity of the UN's creation and capacity for global influence (created by, and it's "voice" given to it by the second beast, the USA).  Many, however, are obsessed with a bizarre concept of the word, "image", as being some kind of A.I.-controlled robot or cybernetic being, an "image" of the coming son of perdition often erroneously called "the beast", all a load of sci-fi-like falderal and a product of corrupt modern culture.  It is the consequence of the same old ongoing problem (which I have previously touched upon) of interpreting ancient language using modern concepts of various words outside of the scripture itself.  The scripture always provides its own interpretation if we are prepared to look and see it without preconceptions which we cling to out of pride, blinding us to what the Lord is telling us.  I want to put to rest the meaning of "image" as used in the new testament scriptures.

First of all, the word translated as "image" in some versions of the bible or "likeness" in others in the book of Matthew, chapter 22, where Yeshua was being tested by the disciples of the Pharisees with the Herodians regarding the issue of taxation, is the same Greek word as that used for "image" in Revelation, chapters 13, 14, etc.  The English representation of that word, used to help us pronounce it correctly (or as near to correct as possible), is "eikon" or "ikon".  It is Strong's concordance number G1504.

Mat 22:17-21  KJV  Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?  (18)  But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?  (19)  Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.  (20)  And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?  (21)  They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.

Here are the Strong's concordance entries related to the word in question, although they are really not essential except to note that it is the same word for "image" or "likeness" used in both Matthew 22:20 and Revelation 13:14.

G1504

εἰκών eikōn i-kone'

From G1503; a likeness, that is, (literally) statue, profile, or (figuratively) representation, resemblance: - image.

G1503

εἴκω eikō i'-ko

Apparently a primary verb (perhaps akin to G1502 through the idea of faintness as a copy); to resemble: - be like.

Sometimes the argument turns to the false argument of appeal to authority, wherein a naysayer may claim that they are appealing to the authority of a scholar of ancient Greek.  However, should God have required that we refer to scholars of ancient Hebrew and ancient Greek in order to correctly interpret His word then He should have supplied such a scholar with every printed copy or, at the very least, provided us with irrevocable evidence that the scholars involved in the translation are our true source of understanding, rather than His Spirit.  This would be similar to the way that the Roman Catholic church hierarchy, the Mohammaden Imams and the ancient Hebrew Scribes and Pharisees operated, keeping the common people from understanding and lording their authority over the masses of the "great unwashed".

Not so God, that is never how the Ever Living God operates, for He is generous and kind, though He hides Himself from the arrogant and proud but is a glorious, blazing fire and brilliant light before any humble servant who truly loves His name.  The Lord has given us all we need to understand the scripture through and in His Spirit.

Think about what a person in the days of, let's say, Julius Caesar, meant by using the word for "image".  Were not the artistic busts of ancient emperors called images?  Now consider what the Lord Himself was saying when he asked those trying to cause Him to stumble (regarding a question on taxation) about whether or not it is lawful (for the Jews) to pay tribute to Caesar.  The Lord referred them to a minted coin, wherein there was an "image" or "likeness" (depending on which specific bible version one uses) of Caesar imprinted upon it.  The only possible understanding of this is that, like in today's world and alike throughout all the history of minted coinage, there's an image of the head of the king or queen or principle governing person, in this case, Caesar, on at least one side of the coin.

So, we see that the word, image, is referring to a head, such as that of a bust or the head on a coin, that is, a head without a body, being an image of what it represents because it identifies its own source directly.  Therein lies the obvious clue to identifying the "image of the beast".  A beast is an empire of some kind, like a powerful nation or group of nations, whether physical or spiritual, united under some common system of governance, which is made clear to us in the book of Daniel in the old testament scriptures.  The reference to being a beast is a parable of what it represents.  In the case of the coming global government, the uniting system or ideology will be global socialism or communism, which is why Revelation 13:15 indicates that all are made to worship, that is, give total obeisance, to the image of the beast, since under statist regimes, the state is almighty and there can be no greater authority and, therefore, no greater God than the state, a central tenet of socialist and communist systems.  The head is the governing entity and the body is all the rest.  One can also associate other specific biological elements with sociological elements, such as energy and goods transport with the cardiovascular system, information communications systems (whether snail-mail, on-foot messenger or the modern Internet) with the nervous system, military and police forces with biological defenses such as immune systems, etc.  This is not just lucky, it is a persistent and consistent theme in all creation... just like we see that the mathematical equations used to model energy transfer all come back to the same forms regardless of the manner of energy transfer, the form of the energy or the medium in which it moves, likewise we see systems throughout creation that emulate one another so that the concept of parables makes perfect sense.  God has always spoken through parables because parables are analogous systems of ideas and processes and God is a consistent designer.  Without that consistency, the universe is simply not possible for it is founded on a uniting principle, the justice and righteousness of God.  (There is much to that last line but I will leave it to you to understand it more deeply so that you gain something immensely valuable by that process... if you work at it).

So, the head of the beast is the governing entity, and the image of the beast is merely a head without a body.  This aligns perfectly with the form of the UN.  We see it is much like the head of the first beast, whose current incarnation is the EU government (even in appearance and structure they have striking similarities) but it has not a body, no specific nation or empire, whether physical or spiritual, over which it directly rules, though the second beast seeks to elevate it to being the governing head over all who live on the face of the earth.

Now, whether or not the question is settled for you remains to be seen, for it is your choice to believe or disbelieve regardless of the evidence.  That is how humanity has always operated since the fall of Adam and the only thing that blinds us to the truth is our own pride.  Be very wary of your own propensity for the sin of pride, a flaw suffered by every human being save for the Lord Himself.  We must be ever vigilant to guard against our own vanity and arrogance for it is like a venomous serpent, with its head raised, waiting to spit venom into our eyes to blind us and waiting to strike at any moment once we are blind, taking us down to the pit of destruction.  As the word says, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom... but one who is proud does not fear God.  As always, seek God on your understanding of this and test anything anyone tells you against the revealed word of God, for therein you will find an answer to every question but only if you seek it through the eyes and understanding afforded you by the Spirit of the Ever Living God, and for that you must be born again, or otherwise you do not have His Spirit at all and, without that, you are as a dead man, having no true sight or correct hearing or real understanding.

Big Boom Maybe Not 2022 After All?

After writing the post about the possible collision of the two stars in a very tight binary orbit, I decided to do a little more research to try and come up to date about the state of things.  Among a few other things, I found an article which indicates that the 2022 estimate may be in error because of a typographical error made when using a set of tabulated data from as long ago as 1999.  The result is that all the calculations were sufficiently off that they no longer think 2022 is a good estimate.

How just one typo had us expecting a supernova in 2022

Oh well, es la vida.

Who knows, maybe it can still happen, maybe in the next few years.... but only God really knows.

Satan's "Climate Crisis"

The WEF, UN, international organisations (all of them) promoting fear of the climate are utterly godless, for their god is a pagan god, the earth, a created thing.  Fear them not!  They are blind men leading the blind and all of them shall fall into a pit!

Fear only God, the Ever Living, He who is, was and ever shall be.  He says...

Gen 8:21-22  And when the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, the LORD said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth. Neither will I ever again strike down every living creature as I have done.  (22)  While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease."

No climate crisis but, certainly, catastrophes, for the sin of mankind weighs heavily on the earth and those cataclysms must come... 

Isa 24:19-23  The earth is utterly broken, the earth is split apart, the earth is violently shaken.  (20)  The earth staggers like a drunken man; it sways like a hut; its transgression lies heavy upon it, and it falls, and will not rise again.  (21)  On that day the LORD will punish the host of heaven, in heaven, and the kings of the earth, on the earth.  (22)  They will be gathered together as prisoners in a pit; they will be shut up in a prison, and after many days they will be punished.  (23)  Then the moon will be confounded and the sun ashamed, for the LORD of hosts reigns on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, and his glory will be before his elders.

Mat 24:4-8  And Jesus answered them, "See that no one leads you astray. (5)  For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and they will lead many astray. (6)  And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. (7)  For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. (8)  All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.

Love God and worshipfully fear Him only, out of love and respect, for He is your life and your future and your loving Father in heaven, but He cannot co-exist with sin and that must come to an end.

The Two Witnesses -- 2022 or Soon After?

This post is somewhat, in part one might say, directed at a certain person with whom I had contact some years ago but that contact has been lost.  Nevertheless, there is content here for any reader also.

Some time in 2019 I came across an article regarding a possible very significant astronomical event that is expected to occur in 2022.  The event is the collision of two stars which currently orbit one another in a decaying orbit.  The collision, if it occurs, is expected to create a huge amount of light visible to the naked eye on earth.  I decided to publish this post when I stumbled again across another article regarding that event and how there is a rabbi who believes it is a major sign of the coming Messiah.

Rabbi Claims Jesus Christ Will Return in 2022, Bases His Prediction on Astronomy

https://www.christianpost.com/news/rabbi-claims-jesus-christ-will-return-2022-bases-prediction-on-astronomy.html

Among other things, I expect we will see some great cataclysms take place that year, which is only a year away.  Perhaps the beginning of sorrows in earnest.

It occurred to me that this could signify the coming together of the two witnesses, the huge light indicating the presence of the power of the Holy Spirit operating through them, beginning when they finally meet.  According to a certain person's prophetic revelation, they will meet through "marvelous signs".  I will not describe much more about that person except to say that I now almost entirely understand all his dreams related to me by his young caregiver.  The revelation about how the witnesses meet, however, was not given to him in a dream but he heard the voice of God speaking and he wrote it all down.  Shortly thereafter he passed on and went to be with the Lord.  I have kept all notes and information I could manage to keep regarding his dreams and that final prophecy since I believe that they were all true revelations.  At this point I am unable to reveal more of what the elderly man said, since I believe his final wishes were to keep what he said and not make it public, but one small, single line I will reveal for the sake of a certain young man.

A certain person, possibly located in Portugal, who may be reading this blog will know who that man was, for that reader is a young man who was a caregiver for the elderly gentleman, and I have since seen another video he published some time ago, which I also understand, regarding the two witnesses.  He wrote me the revelation given to the elderly man shortly before his death and among numerous things it contained the following line; "though they cannot meet.... but marvelous signs make them meet..."

Indeed, since they come from such diverse places on the earth, marvelous signs will be needed for them to meet, and if those two stars come together, that will be, I suspect, a sign that they will meet.  Watch, then, for marvelous signs.  Perhaps they will be visible to all or only to those involved, I do not know, but watch in any case.  God bless that young man who, at his elderly friend's request, never revealed to me his name or his dear old friend's name, may the Lord Ever Living bless him for all the days ahead.

Addendum 2021-03-02

I should point out a couple of issues with the article linked in this post.  As usual, reporting has been sensationalised, "so," thought I, "perhaps I should make that fact explicit."  Not that you wouldn't notice, but just in case you don't.

First of all, the article is entitled (very entitled), "Rabbi Claims Jesus Christ Will Return in 2022, Bases His Prediction on Astronomy."

NO he did NOT!  The rabbi made NO such claim.  The rabbi merely spoke of such events preceding or relating to the appearance of the Messiah.

At the beginning of the article, we read, "A rabbi in Israel is predicting that Jesus Christ might return in 2022 when astronomers foresee two large stars colliding and creating a light visible from Earth."  Notice the definite change in tone, "... might return...", typical of sensationalistic reporting being toned down somewhat but, clearly, not enough, still not correct.

Later, we read the rabbi's own words which neither indicate nor discount a precise coincidence of stellar events and the appearance of the Messiah.  The "will" and "might", in 2022, are added by the author of the article, obviously operating as click-bait.

I guess that I assume most people have a critical eye and ear regarding things being said and claims that are made but, looking around these days, that is an unsafe assumption.  I hope that my efforts thus far encourage you to fine-tune your own mental filters in order to pick apart the tricky language so often used, especially in mass media and also from those who make sensational claims about scripture, regardless of the source.  Context, my friends, context and logic.
