666, Prophetic Timetable on the Calendar

Is the number 666 on the Prophetic Timetable and actually on the Calendar? Many today are hotly discussing this number and its prominence in June of 06. We have covered this topic number for many years. The number itself, is seen by some greek scholars as actually being 616. However, when I studied this and sought some experts, the greek problems with the number 666, were small. The actual conclusion by experts are that the text, properly interpreted mean 666 and not 616. 616 is a mis-interpretation, according to some.

In the prophetic timetable, 666 or 616 is on board the end time train. This number is the number of a man. It is the number of man and the number of the beast. This beast is the Antichrist or son of Perdition mentioned in 2 Thessalonians.
Revelation 13:15  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.

Today, this mark 666 or 616, whichever you want to believe it is, will not bring any significant changes in the world. How do I know that? Scripture says this mark will be enforced when the image of the beast is made and it speaks. This image then will be worshipped. Just as the Roman Caesars’ wanted to be seen as Gods and worshipped, so too will the ’son of perdition’. This person sets himself up in the temple of God (This will be Israels new temple for the endtimes sacrifice and worship. It will be patterned after the Old testament temple of Solomon.) to be worshipped as God (2 Thess 2).

Of course, today, you have to beware of those muslim terroists, murderers, and others who might use this date as an incentive to send a message. This is not, fully prophetic, but the violence fits into the ‘wars and rumors’ of war in the gospels.  But the actual number, its mark, or the name of the beast will yet to become fully realized. The first thing that needs to happen is the rise of the ’son of perdition’. No, this person is not George Bush or someone in the British royals. This figure will rise prominently from out of nowhere. He will be smart, educated, a man of war, yet uses an ability to negoiate and make treaties. He will have forsaken the God of His Fathers for a new God. He has an innate ability to solve problems. He will be a very proud person. His goal is power. His thirst is too be worshipped as God. His enemies will fall. He will make war with the Jews and the Christians in the later part of his reign. He will openly curse God, heaven, angels, Israel, the Jew, Christians, the bible, and anything to do with it.

The prophetic time table is set. The number 666 or 616 which ever you believe it is is only part of the end time picture. The world, however, will be presented with an option when the true setting for this number begins. You will either worship the beast and his image or you will die. The whole world will be given a choice in this. You will have to have his mark, the number of his name, or the name of the  beast. If you do not, you will die. As you see, 666 is not just the only part of the equation. It does not say 666 is the name of the beast. It mentions his mark (which we believe is 666), the number of his name (again which we believe is 666), or the name of his beast(which we do not know what it is).

We are watching this prophetic time table and waiting. These things will herald in the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ to this earth. I firmly believe this is the generation that will see it. Not only do I believe this, but many others do too.

Are you ready for the Lord?..Get ready! Repent, turn from your ways, believe on His name, and follow Him…The Watchman.

Fusion, Science of the Stars

science of the stars

The science of the Stars and Prophecy come together. Supernatural visitors have a historical record of being interested in man and his technology

Heralding in Prophetic Sciences: Fusion, Science of the Stars

By Dana G Smith
Keywords: Cold fusion, hot fusion, fission, technology, ITER, Maitreya, son of perdition

Summary: What does Hitler, History, and the Son of Perdition have in common? Lets try another one, what does a group of powerful nations, 13 billion dollars, and the science of the stars have in common?
In this article we explore this science and the supernatural figures that appear in the world. It is these figures who seem to have an interest in Mankind and his technology.
Could this be the setup for the coming Son of Perdition? Is there a secret that this figure will bring with him to enable him to rise to the top in power and control.
Read this article now as we explore together the thread that holds all this together.

Part I: The Science of the Stars
The night sky seen from our mountain top valleys on a clear night reveal a view that many would find hard to beat. The appearance of stars, the Milky Way, and even an occasional light that streaks by is a show many would find hard to pass up. Within all these clusters lay energy and a source we call gravitational pull that keeps the natural order. During the day, our earth is heated by the sun, a powerful source of energy. Fusion is the source which powers the sun and stars, called ‘science of the stars’. The process for this is as follows: hydrogen atoms which are put under massive gravitational forces create a way for a natural occurring energy being converted. The simple explanation is that the aforementioned Hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium and matter is converted into energy. When put under extreme heat, these change from a gas into plasma (a gas heated to point where it begins to release electrons) in which negatively charged electrons are separated from the positively charged atomic nuclei (ions). Normally, fusion is not possible because the positively charged nuclei naturally repel each other. But as the temperature increases the ions move faster, and they collide at speeds high enough to overcome the normal repulsion. The nuclei can then fuse, causing a release of energy. 1

The importance of this process cannot be understated. In the history of our own nation, we have been busy with fusion and its cousin fission. Hitler’s own scientists were working on these processes long ago. After the war, Operation Paperclip brought over the scientists to America. Because of this move, many of the sciences Hitler’s people were working on, now became property of the US government. From the early beginnings of this move, science in American secret labs began working on the energy of the stars. These at the time fell into nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. It was the nuclear fission which brought into being the bombs that were used at Hiroshima and Nagasaki to bring about the end of World War II. It was said at the time that thousands upon thousands of American lives were saved by this process. A process that today, society is facing more and more with dread as the stockpiles of depleted uranium from reactors build up and more nations bring Nuclear weapons into their own arsenal.

What most people may not know is that while nuclear fission uses uranium and is destructive, fusion which uses hydrogen instead was an equally capable weapon. In 1952, the American “Ivy Mike” test was exploded. This H-bomb blast yield in the megaton range was about 1000 times that of the fission only nuclear devices used previously to destroy Japan’s war effort. 2

While researching for this article I found a trail neatly woven in the pages of accounts, histories, and archives. This led me from the Nazi war machine, WWII, H-bomb test, and then to scientists in Utah who developed a process called ‘cold fusion’. It is this trail that then faces opposition from the US government patent offices, science in general, and on to the appearance of a figure called Maitreya and a firm known as SHARE international. In all this we find the relationship between science, technology, and strange powers from beyond. These are called different things by different people. To some they are aliens, others angels, and still others the coming “higher consciousness”. It this “higher consciousness” that these visitors seem to want to endow humans with. They see that we face a population problem, global warming, energy problem, and a warring problem. The thread brings to the forefront the need for breakthrough technology which will bring to us an unlimited resource for energy. Add to all this is the fact that these visitors see it as necessary to achieve the next level in mankind’s existence and the figure to come that will lead mankind to the utopia he has been seeking.

There is no doubt as we look back, if the US had been just 6 months late in joining the fight against Hitler or he had been 6 months quicker in developing the technology he was working on, the story would have been different. We could now be in the supposed 1000 year reign of Hitler’s, New World Order. But, that was not to be. Instead, America brought this science to its own shores and the rest is, you say, history. See how close History is connected to Hitler.

Senator Daniel K. Inouye "There exists a shadowy Government with its own Air Force, its own Navy, its own fundraising mechanism, and the ability to pursue its own ideas of the national interest, free from all checks and balances, and free from the law itself.

What will take 20 to 30 years to develop with cost estimates at 13 billion dollars and will bring a “miniature star” on the earth? Let me further say that Europe, Japan, China, the Republic of Korea, the Russian Federation, India, and the USA are all involved in it as well. Add to this fact that it is using ‘hot fusion” operating at 100 degree’s centigrade, putting this technology into a project which will according to estimates bring 500 megawatts of fusion power. This project will usher in a “New World Order” of such magnitude that proponents see energy efficiency for 1000 to 2000 years at least. 3

Cadarache in the South of France is the proposed site for this facility, which, according to its proponents will do all the above. With Lake Geneva as a main source of ingredients to propel this technology well into the next century, the ITER is now the brain trust of a conglomerate of nations all working together for mankind. This project, bringing together what is known as ‘star science’ will seek to tap into the energy that propels the universe.

These challenges are comparable in complexity to understanding the origins of the universe through high energy physics, and realizing the dream of exploring and exploiting outer space. Nevertheless, the challenge of developing an energy source on earth based on the power that drives the sun and stars is proving to be a daunting task, requiring the very best science and technology humanity has to offer. 4

The ITER is the acronym for International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, which many felt was a better name due to the negative connotations surrounding anything ‘Thermonuclear’. This group of scientists, politicians, nations, and leaders are basically going to bring a version of the sun down to earth in a form which will use hot fusion. This fusion will take deuterium which is abundant in water after it is extracted by electrolysis then fused with tritium which has to be manufactured. ITER will be using the process of “hot fusion” which detractors do not see as a viable solution or even doable. This would mean having an ongoing ‘controlled nuclear fusion’ process in this thermonuclear reactor.

Now enter the conspiracy theorists, who believe that the oil industry and its leaders would be very unhappy should either ‘hot fusion’ or another process called ‘cold fusion’ actually succeed in bringing the world into energy independence which is not dependent on petroleum. The houses that oil built is seen around the world in the form of rich oil companies, Sheiks in Arab dress who vaunt their millions, and nations who enjoy their prominence mainly because of oil.

Part II: Disruptive Technology: Disturbing the way things are done!
It doesn’t take a conspiracy to explain the rejection of cold fusion. All it takes is a "common self-interest". For example, let’s say you and I are in two different businesses. You’re selling automobiles and I’m selling refrigerators. A phenomena or device is generated that would cause fewer of your cars and fewer of my refrigerators to be sold. We would not have to sit down together and agree to stop the device from being developed. It would be natural for each of us, on our own, to reject the new device. That’s the nature of a common self-interest. This process drives most rejections. No conspiracy is required. Unfortunately, many industries would be damaged by cold fusion. That is why it’s called a disruptive technology. 5

The ‘cold fusion’ process became a major story in March of 1989 when two scientists from the University of Utah reported success integrating deuterium into a palladium rod and then running electrical currents through it resulting in nuclear fusion in a jar. Other researchers could not duplicate the results and soon this technology was deemed undoable. The research was thoroughly debunked and many scientists took up other technologies and processes instead of ‘cold fusion’. It is interesting to note here that Palladium, the key metal used in this ‘cold fusion’ is named after Pallas Athena, the Greek goddess of Wisdom and War. This leads me to introduce another player in this investigation.

The company is called SHARE international. In case you don’t know this company, maybe you have heard of Benjamin Crème who is the master of this Company and proponent who is heralding in a New Savior to the world. The savior, who Crème claims to have visited with him, is the same figure who has appeared over the ages as Buddha, Christ, Mohammed, and many others, according to claims. It is this figure, whom Crème calls Maitreya and actually tracks his appearances around the world from his SHARE offices that have revealed the next level of technology coming to this world. What is it? You guessed it, ‘cold fusion’.

The fusion process is the method for the immediate future. It will use a form of nuclear energy derived from a single isotope of water. It is safe and superabundant in the waters of the oceans and rivers of the world. This nuclear fusion uses not heat but a cold process, and will be used relatively very soon …" (Benjamin Creme in The Reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom, 1979)

While everyone is focused on energy, the needs of mankind, and technology to meet all those needs, the question needs to be asked. Why would a figure, many would call an Anti-Christ (or false, opposite Christ) show an interest in man’s technological capability? The obvious answer would be, with this special technology mankind would be independent, and free to pursue his Utopian desires for the world. With this technology any person who develops it, uses it, and has it in his grasp to reveal the how to do it formula would instantly be seen as a Savior. Especially if this Savior is from another world, universe, or dimension, where other world being’s and UFO’s always seem to be spotted around secret military bases, top secret labs, and technology man is developing.

On the process of ‘cold fusion’ MIT’s Peter Hagelstein said that “cold fusion has yielded surplus energy from as far back as the initial experiments in 1989. Verification of these controversial results is not the problem — many labs around the world have reproduced parts of the results many times.” Further he adds, "Excess energy comes in bursts in these experiments, the effect has been observed in many other laboratories. It’s also not been observed in other laboratories, especially in the early days." 6

Experiments by the US Navy’s Space and Naval Warfare systems center in San Diego California has worked on experiments in the ‘cold fusion’ arena. The experiment stands out because it was published in a magazine that counts Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenbern, and Konrad Lorenz as past authors. The well respected peer reviewed journal is Naturwissenschaften. 7 Add to these experiments by DARPA and the Office of Naval Research and you wonder why we do not have this technology already. In his book, Cold Fusion: Secret Energy Revolution, the late Antony C. Sutton, D.Sc declared: “Cold fusion in several variants is already working in research labs around the world and will soon be brought to market by several different companies”. Another famous author of the true Futuristic kind was Arthur C Clarke who predicted the arrival of ‘cold fusion’ in his book, Profiles of the Future, 1964, Bantam Books. Cold fusion using elements, produced in labs on tables, creates energy that is free, and does not have the problems of ‘hot fusion’ and related ‘thermonuclear’ reactors. Clarke said of it:

"We must remember, however, that nuclear engineering is in roughly the same position as chemical engineering at the beginning of the nineteenth century, when the laws governing reactions between compounds were just beginning to be understood. We now synthesize, on the largest scale, drugs and plastics which yesterday’s chemists could not even have produced in their laboratories. Within a few generations, we will surely be able to do the same thing with the elements."

Fusion can be the ultimate energy source, and ‘cold fusion’ extremely safe compared to his cousin ‘hot fusion’. It is cleaner compared to fossil fuels and is abundant. Cold fusion would utilize the water of the world’s oceans, which have deuterium and tritium. This would be more than sufficient to keep the world moving on for centuries to come. With fossil fuels expected to run short in 50 years or less, the question is put about, who can we trust? Will man actually develop free energy for the free use and non profit of any one person or company? The answer is not forthcoming any time soon. The issue of ‘cold fusion’ and its actual capabilities is the subject of Fiat, Mitsubishi, and Toyota who fund research into this area. Howbeit, it is secretive, as is the government research on all new technologies. As yet, the ability to tame the problem of mass producing energy through ‘cold fusion’ is still in the labs. The answer may come with the future ‘son of perdition’ mentioned in 2 Thessalonians. Through deceit and cunning he will come in to bring in a delusion upon the world. One method to usher in this New World of the ‘son of perdition’ is by bringing with him the formula for free, mass produced, ‘cold fusion’. After all, we find ‘supernatural’ forces that are uniquely interested in what humans are doing.

As recently as 2007, the American Chemical Society had a conference in Chicago. On its agenda was “New Energy Technology”, among this was ‘cold fusion’ or ‘low energy nuclear reactions’, which they deem as being ‘evolved and is supported by rigorous, repeatable experimental data. The symposium has a dozen scientists who presented their findings. 8

Over two thousand years ago a prophet by the name of Zechariah described a plague coming to the world. It is the only known reference to what many scholars believe is the perfect description of a nuclear holocaust or explosion going off. The results of such explosion on people would and is devastating. Zechariah, chapter fourteen and verse twelve says:

And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
Will mankind every put away his nuclear weapons and tools for mans destruction. The answer is probably not. Zechariah saw into the future and described a plight which today, we can see clearly as a nuclear explosion. In the realm of fission and fusion, we have learned that fusion, using Hydrogen, produces an explosion 1000 times more violent that the ones used against Japan. Cold fusion and its processes are working in table top models by scientists utilizing labs. Secrecy has been maintained by certain governments while working on this technology. There are people who probably don’t want to lose their control because of the power of oil and petroleum. There are also interested ‘outsiders’ who like the figure Maitreyia, seem interested in mans technology and well being. Just what will happen in its very minute details is not known. We do know from biblical prophecy the coming ‘son of perdition’ and the delusion which will sweep his control over all the earth, nations, and peoples. One way for this ‘son of perdition’ to take over, for sure, is technology and formula secrets which give him ‘godlike statuses over all others on earth. In this way, men might be tempted to worship such a one who appears as light, but in actuality is a beast, the beast of revelation.

The House That Mammon Built

fall colors

The House That Mammon Built

A psalm by the Watchman Dana G Smith

Let the Watchman declare what he see’s…(and hear’s)..Is 21:6

Ezekiel 34:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them.
11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.
12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD.
16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.
17 And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the he goats.

Prelude:

Surely they shall be ashamed on that day,
The day I requite them for their treachery.
Every last vestige of these houses will be destroyed.
I will rid me of them.
I will rid me of those who profess such things.
It is unclean.
It has gone to the dogs.
Cleanness, Cleanness,
Where shall I find it?

Will you not listen?
You who have destroyed my people!
Your knowledge is corrupted,
Your ways perverse,
Yet you call my name!
Yet you expect me to bless your ways!

Proclamation

Woe unto those who have sought mammon.
Woe unto those who love the world’s pleasure.
Woe to the spoiled doctrine of filth.
Will you not cease!

Your knowledge is vanity…
Your wisdom is foolishness…
Your pride is in the house of destruction.
Woe unto the corrupters…
Woe unto thee…
Woe upon woe.
Thy gold & silver…
Thy precious things with them…
Yea, all will perish on that day.

For the fire will consume it.
My wrath will overtake thee.
My Word shall take root…
With the Sword of my mouth…
Shall the whoredoms be destroyed…
And my foolish shepherds with them.
All will be destroyed on the day…
The day of the wrath of my vengeance.

Unless you repent.
Unless you turn from this path…
Death will be your end…
Heartache your path…
Despair your bedfellow…
Darkness forever in the fruit of destruction…
For this is the end of them…
Who love to deceive…
Who relish in their fineries… While leading my people to destruction.

I will not have it so.
I will seek out the hurting ones.
I will seek out the broken of my people.
I will be their shepherd.
I will bind their wounds.
I will anoint their heads.
I will cover them with my wings.
I will grant to them joy.
I will bring them to myself.

There I will be to them a G_d.
There they will be to me a people.
For I AM the L_RD.
I will bring Justice.
I will bring righteousness.
It shall fall as rain from the heaven.
My glory shall cover the earth…
And the people will know me.
They will walk in the light of my Peace.
They will bask in the Love of my presence.
They will know at that time…
What righteousness is…
What truth is…
And they shall Glorify my name.

For this people will be saved.
They will be unto me…
“a precious thing”
For I will deliver them.
I will save them.
For I AM the L-RD G-D.
I AM Mercy.
I AM Truth.
I AM full of Grace.
Yet to those who refuse to hear…
Bitterness shall be their end…
And destruction their lot.

Blessed be the Name of the I AM… The L_RD G_D…

EndNOTES:

There is no G_D, but the L_RD G_D
Full of Mercy and Grace.
Blessed are those who find themselves…
In the secret place of the MOST HIGH.
This cannot be found by wicked…
By deceitful ways, nor by God or Silver…
Nor by Religion.
Out of a pure heart, let those who will seek..
Yea, seek the L_RD G_D, do so…
With all their mind, body, and Soul.
Loving HIM and LOVING Those HE LOVES.
A Pure Heart will find the L_RD.
A Repentant heart also will be found of HIM

Bible Answers for Prophecy Book and the Coming Smelter of God

Bible Answers for Prophecy Book and the Coming Smelter of God (note this is part of an extensive article featured on our special D Day Prophecy Blog pages) click link above or below to go to complete article.

In the writing of my new book, D Day for America, I had spent hours praying over America and the church. I had received visions and dreams before I finally wrote the book. I prayed over everything I wrote and intended it to be controversial. Long before I wrote the book, my wife and I spent a number of years warning those we came in contact with concerning those things the Lord had shown me. Many of these people were our friends. Today, most of those Christian friends have little or nothing to do with us.
I went against traditional doctrine and man made teachings in our church to put out this book. I decided that what I had seen was of God and from the Lord. I decided to tell, preach, teach, and warn what the Lord gave me to anyone that would listen. As a result, many in the denomination I was part of, turned away. For them and many who are in pulpits, the fall of America and judgment of the church is not something they want to be reminded of, let alone teach. The following article is in response to questions I have received over the book. These are just a few.

I am convicted, what do I do?

John 16:7 ¶Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

If in the course of hearing the Word of God, reading an article with the Word in it, or even a book, you then become convicted of sin. That is, you see for the first time the light of the Gospel as it sheds and reveals the sins in your life.

Make no mistake about it that this is no accident. Many today in the pulpits in America preach a smooth sickly religious gospel that is no gospel. It does not confront the sinner or the saint with their transgressions. It preaches peace, peace, when there will be no peace.

The Holy Ghost, known also as the Holy Spirit or Comforter, will reprove or expose or make plain the sin. It will make you conscious of the righteousness and holiness of God and the coming judgment. By doing this, you develop a Godly sorrow. This sorrow leads to repentance, turning from your sins and following Christ.

By turning to the Lord in repentance and following him, you will escape the wrath of God in the final judgment. The second death will have no effect on you, but you will, though, as with all believers have to “live by faith”, and meet all troubles in this life with Gods help and leading. He will give you peace, and will not forsake you. His Spirit will bear witness with your spirit you are a child of God. In all this, God will not allow you to fail, if you keep your heart and eye on Him and Him only.

2 Corinthians 7:9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

A.A. Allen’s Vision of the Statue of Liberty

A.A. Allen’s Vision of the Statue of Liberty in the Gulf:
by A.A. Allen, July 4, 1954

"In those days, Darkness, perilousness, wars, and chaos shall abound

As I stood atop of the Empire State Building, I could see the Statue of Liberty, illuminating the gateway to the new world. Here, spread before me like an animated map, is an area sixty or eighty miles in diameter. I was amazed that the Spirit of the Lord should so move me, there atop the Empire State Building. Why should I feel such a surge of His Spirit and power there?

Suddenly, I heard the voice of the Lord. It was as clear and as distinct as a voice could be. It seemed to come from the very midst of the giant telescope. But when I looked at the telescope, I knew it hadn’t come from there, but directly from Heaven. The voice said, “For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from hence forth thou shalt have wars.” (II Chronicles 16:9)

Immediately when I heard the voice of God, I knew this was a quotation of scripture. But never before had a thing come to me so forcibly by the power of the Spirit. The ticking of the telescope stopped. The man before me had used up his dime’s worth. As he stepped away, I knew that I was next. As I stepped to the telescope and dropped in my dime, immediately the ticking started again. This ticking as an automatic clock which would allow me to use the telescope for a limited time only.

As I swung the telescope to the north, suddenly the Spirit of God came upon me in a way that I had never thought of before. Seemingly in the spirit I was entirely caught away. I knew that the telescope itself had nothing to do with the distance which I was suddenly enabled to see, for I seemed to see things far beyond the range of the telescope, even on a bright, clear day. It was simply that God had chosen this time to reveal these things to me, for as I looked through the telescope, it was not Manhattan Island that I saw, but a far larger view.

That morning, much of the view was impaired by fog. But suddenly, as the Spirit of the Lord came upon me, the fog seemed to clear, until it seemed that I could see for thousands of miles. But that which I was looking upon was not Manhattan Island. It was all of the North American Continent spread out before me as a map is spread upon a table. It was not the East River and the Hudson River that I saw on either side, but the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans. And instead of the Statue of Liberty standing there in the bay on her island, I saw her standing far out in the Gulf of Mexico. She was between me and the United States.

I suddenly realized that the telescope had nothing to do with what I was seeing, but that it was a vision coming directly from God. And to prove this to myself, I took my eyes away from the telescope, so that I was no longer looking through the lens, but the same scene remained before me.

NWO in USA as Early as This Year?

Dana G Smith, The Watchman Interview on Channel Z…

From Zeph on Channel Z… EXCELLENT PROPHETIC TALK… ABOUT AMERICA… D DAY FOR AMERICA…WWW.DDAYFORAMERICA.COM … AS EARLY AS THIS YEAR, THE US COULD BE IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER. *WARNING* WARNING WARNING

In an another interview with Zeph, we covered the upcoming things to America in regards to Prophecy. There is no doubt many see this year as an important year prophetically. The alarm is to be sounded to all people. This alarm means you need to be right with the Lord. You will be found out either way. The smelter of the Lord is coming to this nation. When that comes, the faith of many will be tested.
While many wait for the rapture or good times to come. For those who are watching, the state of the Laodacian church, the nationwide repulsive sin, and the rise of New age occultism is tremendous. The church itself is caught up in a professional psycho-babble which teaches man made doctrines and inventions of philosophy.  The church itself is swept up with many church goers totally ignorant of the fact of this.

The Second American Civil War and the coming Apocalypse..By Dana G Smith

Psalms 47:2  “For the LORD most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.”

“If you wouldst live long, live well; for folly and wickedness shorten life.”
Benjamin Franklin (1706-90),

In Proverbs it says; “Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.” It can be seen, especially in America, that through the years, from the founding of this nation, the blessings afforded our great state. In this we must be humbled and acknowledge that true to the founding fathers intention, our constitution was laid bare upon the great truths of the Ten Commandments.

Furthermore, we realized at the time, a nation cannot exist nor tarry long at rebellion against a heavy handed foe as Great Britain without divine intervention of the Great God of the universe. In this we saw that a little band of rebels, pushed by a desire for what they thought were God given rights, that is the right to be free men that can say what they want, and worship their God in the manner they deemed fit. This avenue of belief and pursuit of faith, a contrary manner to those in power in the Church of England at the time, not allude itself to safety for those who did keep their faith in this manner in the foreign country in which they found themselves. I say foreign because true believers are not of this world, they live in it, but they are pilgrims and foreigners who like Abraham sought a city whose builder and maker was God himself. Thus, the oppressor church did much to slay the innocent victims of the faith during the time of the pilgrim’s trip to this shore. In so doing, this lit a fire that to this day has not gone out.

Moreover, the thought of those who came, is brought out in full force, when considering the words off the lips of one of our own intrepid adventurers. Benjamin Franklin said; “Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety”. If this would of happened today, would we of had the courage and foresight to rebel against a country much stronger than ourselves. Surely the courage of those who did the rebelling in 1776 had not only courage, but faith. This was a Faith that said “there was a God who looked over the affairs of men and nations.” This was a Faith that said “this God will help us to establish a righteous nation based upon the principles of the bible.” The thought of course here is to where else could they look to copy a nations foundation? To whom could they look for the solid fresh example of righteousness and truth in a nation? The nations were a composite of kingdoms ruled by selfish bloated ego’s and self centered religious bigots. These nations had conspired with the Church of Rome, for the most part, to execute and destroy all vestiges of opposition. Then when the other church became so strong, the foe of the Catholic Church, the protestant as they became known, did what the Catholic Church had done.  This church as well oppressed and crushed its opposition.

It is in this scene we find the pilgrims. They coming with faith differing from the protestant of the English church had been cast down and castigated for their way of life and belief. So it was that this group sought shelter at the shores of the Americas. Here they would learn the lessons from the past, and forge a new nation, a nation that would be destined to grow to staggering wealth, prominence, and power. In Proverbs 14:34 we read; “¶Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people,” in the example of America we have seen this true. For this nation has seen great revivals, multitudes of churches, denominations, pastors, evangelists, parishioners, and meetings, lots and lots of religious meetings. It is said in America, we who represent only about 20% of the world’s population, actually have 80% of the world’s pastors, churches, and bible seminaries.

 

Have we now come full circle? I mean, is this the end? We have been around the block; had a revolution, then a civil war, more wars, fights, and then more troubles, only to come to this end.  What is this end? I mean an end to the belief that this nation and the belief in God are one. They were in the beginning and they should be today. Where else can our congressmen, representatives and even the President open their day in prayer, talk about prayer, and their faith, while at the same time disallowing prayer and that same talk in our schools.  Where but here can one lone person unhappy with the words “ In God we trust” on our money try to have it taken off the bills? Where but here can people preaching on the street be arrested for simply announcing Gods words to a group of homosexuals? This happened in Philadelphia not too long ago. Where else but here can the lost of our identity be so abrupt?

 

Again I refer to Benjamin Franklin who warned this;
“Think of these things, whence you came, where you are going, and to whom you must account.”

We must remember where we came from.  Then we must ask ourselves where are we going? Do we want to make this country, which was the greatest nation on earth [so to speak] like unto some other country? To what country in the world do we want to liken it too? In the beginning our forefathers could not find such a country to pattern it after. That is why today, our country is actually a Constitutional Republic not a democracy.   A constitution was formed, based upon the Word of God. This was not a Theocracy, but the main idea was to take the principles lined in Gods word and make this the basis for a new nation. It worked then, why change it?  These people who built our nation knew to whom they must give account [as is reflected in the warning above]. To make it more serious, in Proverbs 15:6 it says; “¶In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.”  As we start to change the format of this nation, from a Godly or at least one in which we honor the principles based in Gods word, starting with the Ten Commandments to one which dishonors such things, we face the ‘revenues of the wicked.’  We have gone from these being the Ten Commandments to the Ten Suggestions. We have gone from believing God is the ‘King of all nations’ to thinking he is asleep or at least doesn’t care what we do. The fear of God and of His judgment is farther from our minds than it has ever been.

 

Based upon these things and watching the daily events unfold, I believe America is on her last leg in this journey. The inheritance will be forged in copper and rusty iron for our children. It will be our own fault. The epitaph will read; “here lays America, she did not trust in the Lord God anymore.” Trouble has come since the 60’s when the rebellion started to come mainstream. Now in the 05’s of the year 2000, we can lay aside the pretense and realize what we have done. If you are hoping in America to survive, it won’t last as you have known it. Sure, there will always be people on the shores in this great country. The problem will be that life as we have known it, will cease to exist. Already we have been in a so called ‘civil war’, a second American revolution for some time. Lead by liberals, pro active loose moral anything goes individuals; the change is already taking place. Away with it all they cry, no more God, no more prayer, no more preaching in the streets, no more guilt for the way we live. After all they reason, America is great, she did not get that way by the hand of an unseen mean God who hates sin and pride.

 

Furthermore, as this takes on steam, it will lead full force into the Apocalypse. With America and her steamroller for help, the Anti Christ will take over all nations. America will in fact be made impotent by the loss of the belief we have had in God for so many years. The church will stand by as it has since the sixties and let the loose moral ship in the harbor. The church will become an abyss of the ‘Whore’ church we see in Revelation. This will be a church which allows the fornication and idolatry of the world to take it over.  Now we will have believers, disciples who will stand up. God will always have a voice through His people, but they will suffer for their stand in Christ they take. This, my friend is the ‘Second American Revolution’. This revolution will lead right into the deceptive arms of the smooth talking and captivating personage of the ‘false prophet’ who promotes the leader of the nations.  This leader of the nations will arrive and we know him by this description:

2 Thessalonians 2:8 and then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

9  Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Peace, Peace when there will be no peace! by Dana G Smith

It is in the air. You can listen for it, seek it, want it, and long for it. This is called peace. We are losing men in the Middle East because our peace was shattered on September 11th. Our lawmakers cry for peace. Top senators cry loudly for a return to it. Get out of Iraq they say.  No matter the cost, people want peace. After all, blood shed is not a good thing.  In the comeuppance of the modern era, we think ourselves to smart to have conflicts, war, or terror. We have smart men and women at the heads of governments. These governments form a system of government called the United Nations. The United Nations has a security section for bringing in safety to the nations. It is called the Security Council.  From our vantage points on the couches, easy chairs, and lunch rooms of America we see the battle for the peace of the world.

The United Nations has a security section for bringing in safety to the nations. It is called the Security Council.  From our vantage points on the couches, easy chairs, and lunch rooms of America we see the battle for the peace of the world.

   This battle echo’s out from the hallowed halls of secular governments. These governments reflect the everyday citizen. It seems all eyes are on the difficult spots of the world. We are tired they say of the violence. People, including boys and girls are blowing themselves up in the name of God. Terrorists are plotting to kill people everywhere. The daily grind of the news machine never lets up. Daily the pictures get bloodier, the stories more unbelievable, and the terrorists more brazen. Yet in the mix, we are told that peace will be obtained. From President Bush we hear the litany of phrases about peace. It is his job you see to bring peace to this world. Tony Blair, as well, looks on and agrees that peace is a necessity.

   All this peace speaking is aimed at certain areas of the world. The worst area’s of course is in the Middle East. From the atrocities of Israel and the Palestinians they say to the mess in Iraq. Not to mention the situation in Sudan.  As one looks on and observes this myriad of peace nicking, you wonder and ask yourself… “Do they read the same bible I do”?

   Israel faced the same situation long ago.   Of course, she had wandered away from the Lords teaching and his ways. They ignored his pleadings and went on their own way. It had gotten so bad that the prophet Jeremiah (one among many) were sent to warn Israel. Jeremiah spoke of these people saying; “behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.” He said this because everyone from the Scribe and Prophet to the everyday person had had enough of the warnings Jeremiah was speaking.  

 Isaiah faced the same type of trouble when the people spoke to him and said: Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, and prophesy deceits. Isaiah 30:10. They were saying in essence, do not give us word of what is true, but say false things to give us pleasure. Jeremiah said in chapter six, verse thirteen that; “For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.” This was a people filled with greed. This greed started at the top of the food chain from God and went downward to the people.  If the priest says it is okay the people reasoned, it must be. So the greed, which started at the top of the Religious food chain made its way downward. Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain. Jeremiah said of these in chapter eight and verse nine that; “the wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?” Yes, from the top of the religious food chain, the very top scholars, scribes, and priests rejected the Word of the Lord. They were bent on backsliding with a perpetual backsliding that could not be remedied. This was a people who want success, fame, money, wealth, power, and only those things of God that would not condemn their actions. They would pick and choose what they wanted to believe. They would form their own action committees and go forward from their. God’s Word was not right, it was too harsh, and they must remake the package. If the prophets God sent would speak those things they wanted they would create their own prophets and their own words.

    Moreover, Jeremiah noticed this as did other prophets sent from God. This people did not want the true messages. Jeremiah said it this way in chapter six and verse fourteen saying; “They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.” The false prophets gave a message of peace. This message was in direct opposition to the truth. The truth was, the armies were gathering to the north of Israel to invade. Israel would fall, Jerusalem would fall, and the temple would be destroyed, and people taken captive.  All this would be in the face of those false prophets who prophesied peace. These false prophets aggravated the situation by lying. They sinned against God by ignoring His Word. They made it possible for innocent people to be deceived by their false prophesying.

    Likewise we have our own false prophets by the bucket load. Every one of them gives messages of prosperity, wealth, peace, wholeness, purpose, and life. The problem they ignore the truth of Gods words. The Message of the Cross is hardly mentioned. As well the hard road of discipleship, where the disciple is not above his master is rarely taught anymore. When an evangelist or pastor does get his spiritual fortitude up, the people get angry because of the convicting power of the Holy Ghost and cry for messages that don’t hurt. It is a gospel of itching ears. In this same type of spiritual ignorance, the people then fall blindly for the peace gospel on earth. People don’t want war. They don’t want to see famines, earthquakes, nor hear of rumors of war. They don’t want to think of the holocaust known as the tribulation. The thought of standing up for righteousness in the face of godlessness is looked upon as hatred and non tolerance. They fall for the excuses of liberal pastors who have disguised the gospel truth and preach a liquid version of the kingdom message where anything goes.

    Jesus warned us in Matthew twenty four, verses five to eleven that: “For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.  For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in diver’s places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.  And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.  And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.” Our Savior also warned in Luke twenty one and verse thirty four and five that; “And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.” Living in the last days we will see all these things. Peace will not come. Those things we love on the earth will be shaken. The Lord firmly warns us that this time will come upon all the earth as a snare. It will catch all those sleeping unaware. They will be caught up in its grasp. Jesus tells us to take heed that we don’t get caught up like the unbeliever in the time of the end.

This time of the end will be one of un precedent wealth, filled with greed and power. The lust for this will capture millions of souls.  This greed will be so bad that it will even be at the expense of innocent people, nations, and tribes. The power elite will want peace to capture more power and wealth. The power elite will brandish swords of religiosity and Unitarian beliefs welded with a socio gospel of the world’s best interests. This will form a world wide effort for peace at any cost. This is the same deceit that Israel saw when they ignored God and Gods messengers. Paul tells us in first Thessalonians five and verse three; “For when they shall cry peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them”.  The cry will be great for peace and safety. Within this prophetic time zone of the end we will see the heralding in of the Anti Christ and his deceptions within the church and the state.  In the end, though, these same men and women who rose the bucket of deceit to the end of time will look on and cry as it is written in Revelation six and verses fifteen to seventeen; “And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?” In the end this deception will be found out as the one that happened in Israel before they were judged. Those who preach the falseness of the secular gospel will get egg on their prophetic faces and a stern judgment from the God who sent them in the first place to preach the truth.  Alas they failed to do as they were told. They will pay for it.

   The good news is that you and I are not given to see the Wrath of the Lord. We accepted the Lords gift. You see, the Lord Jesus Christ took the wrath of God at Calvary when he hung on a cursed tree and became a curse. As we believe on the Lord Jesus Christ in our hearts and turn in repentance from our former wicked ways and follow His path, we are saved from that wrath.  In first Thessalonians five and verse nine it says; “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. ¶Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

This is not to say that until He does come for us we won’t have difficulties, troubles, and face hatred of our love of the truth.  As a matter of fact the Lord warns us that there will those who as in John sixteen and verses two to three will “they shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.”  You see, today in many parts of the world Christians are hunted down and killed by people who claim to be doing a service for God. The idea that living in the last days we will see pure peace with out the ruler of Peace Jesus Christ is both ludicrous and crazy. As believers, our hope is in the King of peace, who said to us in John fourteen verse twenty seven; “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Jesus further tells us in John sixteen thirty three; “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”

  In conclusion, I urge you to get back to the God of Truth, Jesus Christ. Get back to His Word and the Truth it contains. Don’t let the false prophets, no matter how smooth they preach, deceive you. Your soul’s future depends on what you do.

NEW CLUES Identify the BEAST and Mystery Babylon of Revelation.

    Several new clues have surfaced that indicate the spiritual Babylon of the book of Revelation is not Rome, as popularly thought, nor is it the EU (Europian Union) or the U.N. (United Nations). 

Once the mystery of Babylon is solved,
the Beast‘s identity can then be discerned,
as can the mark of the beast, as well.

    We are not to know the day and the hour of Christ’s return, but if these findings are correct, we are looking at a general timetable which shows there may be a very good reason that a calendar, devised by the ancient Mayan civilization, ends in the year 2012… 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++
NEW CLUES:

A.  The identity of Mystery Babylon:

    Add the following phenomenon to the clues we already have in Revelation (where Babylon is identified by its busy seaports and active foreign trade.  We are also told that Babylon "sits on many waters"… "The waters are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages" Rev. 17:1,15 - a veritable Melting Pot, wouldn’t you say?).

Clue:  "Here is the mind which has wisdom. 
The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman (the harlot Babylon) sits."
Rev. 17:9 KJV, NKV

    Is this clue referring to the ‘seven hills of Rome’?  I don’t think so.  If we take this literally and look for mountains, we can actually find one geographic area in the world where exactly seven mountain ranges converge – in a remote spot in northeastern Pennsylvania, USA

    A map drawn in 1872 gives this area a name, one which may be surprisingly prophetic.  The name?  The World’s End

    As I see it, it is not anti-American, but rather pro-truth, to strive for wisdom in discerning the true identity of spiritual Babylon, which may very well be the United States.  God spoke through Jonah to tell the people of Ninevah they were doomed – but they repented, and He relented.  Couldn’t the same be true for us?

B.  The Identity of the Beast:

Clue, Part One:  Revelation goes on to say
the seven mountains are also seven kings.
If the United States of America is spiritual Babylon,
then our country’s equivalent of a king would be the office of PRESIDENT. 

Clue, Part Two:  Revelation 17: 9,10
"Of those seven kings (presidents),
five have fallen (from office),
one is (currently holding the office of president),
the other (president number seven) has not yet come;
but when he (gender neutral) does come,
he must remain for a little while"
(something happens to shorten that president’s term).

    We have had a period in recent history, from 2001 to 2004, when there were six living presidents, five of whom had fallen from office, and the sixth was then – and still IS now – our acting president, President George W. Bush.  If he is the one that is, then we are talking up-to-the-minute current events here, and the person who is elected president in 2008 will be number seven, the one who will preside for a little while.

Who will take the office of president when something happens to number 7?  None other than the one Revelation identifies as the Beast, himself!

Clue, Part Three:  "The beast, who once was (president),
and now is not, is an EIGHTH KING
(he resumes the office of president once again!). 
He belongs to the seven
 and is going to his destruction." Rev. 17:11

     Okay, this is getting serious.  When you mull over the list of those five ex-presidents, (Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, George H.W. Bush, and Bill Clinton) two have already passed on, and only one would seem to be in the age range where another stint in office could be feasible… but that one can’t be president again, can he?

Clue, Part Four:  "And I saw one of the beast’s heads,
as if it had been mortally wounded,
and his deadly wound was healed." Rev. 13:3

    What could deal a fatal blow to a presidency where the fellow still comes out alive, as this one did?  Wouldn’t it be the act of impeachment?  One of these five actually WAS impeached (mortally wounded) by one body of congress, then acquitted (his deadly wound was healed) by the other!  Constitutional lawyers are in hot dispute right now, as to whether this particular ex-president could potentially run as a vice-presidential candidate and be a heartbeat away from resuming his place behind the desk in the oval office.

     As an aside, I would mention here that scholars have found only one U.S. president whose official signature, when the letters are tallied as a numeric equivalent, add up to 666 in both the Hebrew and the Greek alphabets – namely, this same man, who signs his name William J. Clinton.  

See the Clinton/666 chart by Walter R. Dolen, Copyright ©1997, 1998  http://becomingone.org/666/

    This is not partisan prejudice, but rather Bible and history-based evidence that puts the spotlight directly on a specific leader alive in our time.  Who knows, maybe the whole scenario could fall into place – again – with every factor repeating itself, sometime in the future.  I guess we won’t have to wait long to find out if this was just a coincidence.

C.  Identifying the Mark of the Beast:

Clue, Part One:
The words mark and seal are the very same Greek word in the New Testament.

NOTE: We have the chance to avoid the mark of the beast by receiving, instead, the seal of God:  "having His Father‘s name written on their foreheads"… "And I will write on him the name of My God"… "They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads."  This means we’d better get some understanding and acknowledge the One called Father as the Most High, the Father (Source) of the eternal Son and the eternal Spirit – and every other good and perfect gift. 

Clue, Part Two: 
An exercise in logic…
If mark and seal are the same,
what special mark can only a president use?

Answer:  The Presidential Seal!

    It makes sense, given all the other pieces to this puzzle, that Revelation’s mark of the beast, refers to the presidential seal, which implies the president will approve and institute the mark all citizens will need, in order to buy and sell.  According to the 17th chapter of Revelation, this president will also bring the United States to ruin and leave her naked, while he joins forces with ten new leaders - who follow him to the final fight, at Armegeddon.

NOTE 2:  Christians think they are safe because they know they would never WORSHIP the beast, as Revelation says people will do, but beware – the Greek word used for this type of worship is proskuneo , which does not mean the religious worship of one’s God!  This is the word used in Matthew 18:26 KJV, where a servant worshipped his master (paying homage or honor, which is the kind of recognition you would comfortably give a person you perceive as being honorable - or [in the servant's case] supplication, – but not religious worship) : 

"The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying,
Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all."

    Many Christians believe that the word worship always means an act directed to one’s God.  Unfortunately, this leads to the conclusion that THEY themselves will be worshipped as God, when they read the words of Jesus to the overcomers in Revelation 3:9 -  

"Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan,
who say they are Jews and are not, but lie —
indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet,
and to know that I have loved you."

At the risk of losing life and limb, I would challenge you to use a concordance to look up all the instances of worship in the New Testament.  You will find that the words which actually DO mean religious worship of one’s God (often translated as serve) are directed exclusively to the Father – or to idols,  our false gods.

 Again, this is a time to let Jesus bring you to God, to receive the Father’s name on your forehead, before any temptation comes to take the mark of the beast. 

"For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust,
that He might bring us to God"

1 Peter 3:18
