2012

As many of you have most likely heard, the earth and/or mankind is supposed to undergo some sort of change on December 21, 2012. I've mentioned this before in my post about Obama, the Beast, and Revelations...

4 And they worshipped the dragon (Satan) which gave power unto the beast (representing degenerate earthly kingdoms controlled by Satan): and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him (i.e. isn't he wonderful!)?5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. (If Obama was to take office on January 20th, 2009, 42 months later would be the Summer Solstice June 20th. Exactly 6 months later is December 21st, the Winter Soltice, and also happens to be the end date for the Mayan Calendar.)

Anyway, I found some interesting facts at this website http://www.december212012.com/

Numerology
In numerology every number has a corresponding letter associated with it. The date 12-21-12 reads as, A-B-B-A-A-B. When you consider that the Hebrew language is read from right to left, this date would read BA ABBA. The Hebrew translation for BA ABBA is "Father comes / is coming"

The Vatican holds very closely to the Prophecy of St. Malachy. This Medieval Monk had detailed visions of 112 Popes until Doomsday, also known as The Biblical Apocalypse. The current Pope, Benedict XVI is the 111th named Pope, only one Pope remains.

Hollywood, of course is on top of this stuff as well. Here's a trailer for a movie coming out soon.

Bible prophecy

Two headlines caught my attention today that are both straight out of the Bible. Specifically I'm talking about Ezekiel 38 and 39, and the war of Gog (Putin?) and Magog (Russia). For more information on that stuff I highly recommend Epicenter by Joel Rosenberg.

Putin may return to Kremlin in '09: report

MOSCOW (Reuters) – Russian President Dmitry Medvedev could resign from his
post in 2009 to pave the way for Vladimir Putin to return to the Kremlin,
Vedomosti newspaper reported on Thursday, citing an unidentified source close to
the Kremlin.
Medvedev Wednesday proposed increasing the presidential term to
six years from four years, a step the newspaper said was part of a plan drawn up
by Vladislav Surkov, who serves as Medvedev's first deputy chief of
staff.
Under the plan, Medvedev could implement changes to the constitution
and unpopular social reforms "so that Putin could return to the Kremlin for a
longer period," the newspaper said.
"Under this scenario Medvedev could
resign early citing changes to the constitution and then presidential elections
could take place in 2009," the newspaper said, citing the unidentified source
close to the Kremlinl.
The paper said Putin, who is currently prime minister,
could then rule for two six year terms, so from 2009 to 2021.

The other headline is straight out of Revelation Chapter 13 which I wrote about a few weeks ago.

In Some Nations, People Look to Obama as President of the World

President-elect Barack Obama is being embraced worldwide as a symbol of a new beginning for international relations.

Barack Obama's election on Tuesday set off international celebrations and ignited a fervor for the United States that has been unseen since the days immediately following the September 11, 2001, terror attacks.
To some observers, the international reaction has elevated America's president-elect to an unparalleled post: president of the world.

Obama, Revelations, and the Beast

In my last post I mentioned the Book of Revelation. By the way, if anybody is free this weekend I'm building a bunker in my basement if you'd like to help. I'll supply the tin foil hats.

Earlier this year Louis Farrakhan spoke very highly of Obama...

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, another powerful Chicago-based political figure associated with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and other long-time associates of Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama, is leaving no doubt about what he thinks of the leader in the campaign for the White House. He says when Obama talks "the Messiah is absolutely speaking." Addressing a large crowd behind a podium Feb. 24 with a Nation of Islam Saviour's Day 2008 sign, Farrakhan proclaims,

"You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that
they didn't care anything about. That's a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking."

"Brothers and sisters," Farrakhan said, "Barack Obama to me, is a herald of the Messiah. Barack Obama is like the trumpet that alerts you something new, something better is on the way."

Farrakhan points out that the man Nation of Islam followers refer to as "the Savior," Fard Muhammad, had a black father and a white mother, just as Obama did.
"A black man with a white mother became a savior to us," he said. "A black man with a white mother could turn out to be one who can lift America from her fall.

"Would God allow Barack to be president of a country that has been so racist, so evil in its treatment of Hispanics, native Americans, blacks?" he asked. "Would God do something like that? Yeah. Of course he would. That's to show you that the stone that the builders rejected has become the headstone of the corner. This is a sign to you. It's the time of our rise. It's the time that we should take our place. The future is all about you." Full Story

What change and/or who do you think Farrakhan is referring to when he says Obama will "herald" in this Messiah? And the most important question to ask is why does Farrakhan think this way of Obama? What is it that makes him think Obama can help the Nation of Islam? Obama is not a muslim so what is it about him that makes him so connected with Islam and their agenda?

Do you know what the "Beast" is? We'd better go down to the bunker for this...bring some candles and don't forget the Kool-Aid. Let's take a look at Revelation Chapter 13.

1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

Wikipedia time... (In antiquity, it was believed that a leopard was a hybrid of a lion and a panther, as is reflected in its name, a Greek portmanteau derived from λέων léon ("lion") and πάρδος párdos ("male panther"), the latter related to Sanskrit पृदाकु pṝdāku ("snake, tiger, panther").[3][4]

As Farrakhan noted, Obama is half white and half black. Also, the "mouth of a lion"? Obama is a heck of a speaker... people listen and follow him just based on empty promises and uplifting rhetoric, not his actions. Finally, "the dragon (Satan) gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority"...pretty obvious what that means.

3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. (the majority of the world will admire and desire wickedness in the last days)
4 And they worshipped the dragon (Satan) which gave power unto the beast (representing degenerate earthly kingdoms controlled by Satan): and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him (i.e. isn't he wonderful!)?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. (If Obama was to take office on January 20th, 2009, 42 months later would be the Summer Solstice June 20th. Exactly 6 months later is December 21st, the Winter Soltice, and also happens to be the end date for the Mayan Calendar.)

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy (mocking God and all that is sacred and good) against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven (Satan and his followers will mock all that is sacred on earth and in heaven).
7 And it was given unto him (allowed him) to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations (he is allowed to tempt people everywhere).
8 And all (the wicked) that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world (i.e. those who do not follow the Savior are worshiping Satan; Compare with Matthew 12:30 KJV "He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad").
9 If any man have an ear, let him hear (you would be wise to heed these warnings about Satan).
10 He (the powerful wicked) that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity (the wicked will be destroyed by the wicked): he (the wicked) that killeth with the sword must be (will be) killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb ("like a lamb," not "the Lamb," perhaps meaning a powerful "false Christ," a counterfeit by Satan), and he spake as a dragon (like Satan).
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders (Satan and his angels can do miracles), so that he maketh fire come down from heaven (nuclear war???) on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them (the wicked and the foolish) that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image (i.e. worship) to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. (In other words, Satan will do all he can to get pople to follow him, to "worship" him by living wickedly in the last days.)
15 And he had power to give life (make wickedness attractive) unto the image of the beast (which the wicked made in verse 14 by following Satan's instructions), 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: (In the culture of the Bible, "forehead" was symbolic of "loyalty")
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 (Satan exercises great control over economies where the majority are wicked or allow wickedness).
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 (666...not sure exactly what this means).

You can draw from this what you want. I'm not saying that Barack Obama is the "Beast" but I'm not, not saying that either.

Signs of the Apocolypse

People have been thinking the world is going to end for thousands of years now. With all of the natural disasters and prophecies regarding Israel, Iran, Russia, etc. it does make you stop and wonder. I wasn't convinced until I came across this next video. Seriously, this will chill you to the bone...
