1  Theology / Prophecy - Current Events / Re:The Sign of Jonah and Jesus Coin? on: August 26, 2005, 04:03:34 PM
Never once did I say “This was the sign of Jonah.” What I did say was “I especially took notice to the correlations with this and Matthew 12:38-40 the sign of the prophet Jonah to be given.” This is not to confuse words or ideas were one might think
that I am actually alluding to this as being the actual sign of the prophet Jonah.  The Key words used here was correlations rather than a statement providing actual evidence of fact.

How is it that so many today can have the events of Revelations down to 3.5 years when the holy scriptures say “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.”
(Matthew 25:13) and “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Matthew 13:32)

“Thru this I am reminded of the omnipotence of God and his creation which will always further serve to prove the existence of God whom gave us the light in our eyes. “

However I am never confused over such trivial misunderstandings as basic scripture or the English language and the word correlation referring a scriptural basis for the discussion of prophecy and signs. I find it interesting that the Jesus Coin was never refuted which was in fact because of the name assigned it.


Its ok I will forgive you my friend for your misunderstanding nor will I ever attempt to publicly demean you which is a very non Christian like behavior!!!

10th Planet Discovered

It appears a follow-up is in order in light of our possible finding of another planet (10th - Planet Xena) of our Solar System beyond Pluto. It is truly a new period of discovery when we receive the privilege of witnessing such a huge discovery where only 75 years have elapsed since the scientific discovery of Pluto.  

This is definitely a sign that science, technology and the world is moving into another era which will only serve to broaden our understanding of the universe
in which we live. This newly found planet dubbed 2003UB313 - Xena is about three times as
far from the Sun as Pluto and might definitely be larger given the nature of the size and mass differences of our larger outer planets like Saturn as compared to the smaller ones with dense Iron cores closer to the Sun like the Earth.  This new discovery according to Space.com (Mike Brown of Caltech) will be visible over the next six months (with a telescope) almost overhead in the early- morning eastern sky observed in the constellation Cetus  (Cetus is a Latin word for Whale).    
   
This is an interesting find in light of having previously in years past observed an interesting ancient Sumerian tablet depicting possibly 10 terrestrial objects (spheres) orbiting the Sun with one being roughly the same size as Uranus which portrayed the placement of the 10th object at a much greater distance from the Sun in comparison to the others. Largely I am interested in the discovery of this new planet and projection of this objects orbit pattern which appears on the tablet as if it was not following the standard elliptical orbit around the Sun in the same fashion. Gravitational acceleration affects of the Sun would definitely be interesting if this turns out to be a planet larger than Pluto considering where it is now located and how it might be moving in relation to Pluto(9th), Neptune(8th) and Uranus(7th).

20th Century Discovery of Planetary bodies

Percival Lowell performed several searches for new planets in 1913-15 but overlooked Pluto which was not discovered until February 18, 1930. Clyde Tombaugh at the Lowell Observatory in Arizona was searching for additional outer planets which would explain discrepancies in the predicted orbit of Uranus and Neptune. Although we still do not know for sure that this new find is really a planet science is going to have an interesting time with this discovery which may turn out to be much different that what we know so far considering Pluto and Neptune and their unique gravitational behavior combined with Pluto’s highly eccentric orbit. Just what it is for sure they recently found will take some time and effort to study and understand. I think there will be many amateur astronomers out there interested in this find as well as the professionals like those at NASA.  Studying the stars is indeed very fun, educational and interesting especially in the 21st century where we have excellent telescopes, digital cameras and communications technologies delivering to us the digital universe pixel by pixel taking us to new horizons thru the mysteries and discoveries of the unchartered waters of our universe.

"It will be visible over the next six months and is currently almost directly overhead in the early-morning eastern sky, in the constellation Cetus." -Mike Brown of Caltech (Space.com)  

Sign of Jonah (The Whale - Matthew 12:38-40)

Something like this discovery makes me wonder just how much the ancient Astronomers knew. I marvel over their unique symbols as well as how these ancient civilizations (Sumerians) learned so much about the solar system. The Hebrew Old Testament like other dated text seem to refer to objects which would come from the Heavens bringing with them signs, and changes. Signs can be found in the writings of Genesis, Job, Matthew, Isaiah, Habakkuk and the Psalms where heaven declares the glory and mystery of God (thru celestial events and signs) and the fact that the earth will become filled with this knowledge. I especially took notice to the correlations with this and Matthew 12:38-40 the sign of the prophet Jonah to be given. Since signs like the Rainbow (Genesis 9:11-17) were given to Noah some might consider this a significant find in light of the biblical scholars of the 17th century whom considered Cetus as a stellar depiction of the Whale that swallowed Jonah. This for sure was an area of direct interest for me when I found out about the nature of this new discovery. I think it very important that we find peace with God thru the words of the scriptures which can teach us much about ourselves and the universe in which we live. Thru this I am reminded of the omnipotence of God and his creation which will always further serve to prove the existance of God whom gave us the light in our eyes.  

"My first reaction was, 'aw, I lost the bet by seven days." -Mike Brown of Caltech (Space.com)

A more grounded and down to earth approach to the Christian religion. I have become more and more acquainted with BC daily since one can see there was simply no symbolic meaning to the cross Before Christ. I personally prefer the symbolic meaning behind the Star of David since it describes the truest human condition on this earth.

My opinions of some cartoons are not an Analysis per say but rather an observation. Children learn things quicker thru graphics than words at first. I am a father of three wonderful children and do preview and at times censor the content of some media.
Why?  Because of the subliminal induction of violent or abusive content. I have been in around children most of my life and can see the differences in behaviors where parents have paid attention to details. “If you don’t like it turn it off” does apply here.


I was simply wondering if others were noticing how some media over others affect children’s psyche and their behaviors.

Forgiveness is a promise and not a suggestion. If you want to be forgiven, first forgive yourself and then others. This way you too may be forgiven of sin.

PSALMS 130 :1-5

 Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;

 O Lord, hear my voice.
  Let your ears be attentive
    to my cry for mercy.

  If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins,
    O Lord, who could stand?

  But with you there is forgiveness;
    therefore you are feared.

  I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,
    and in his word I put my hope.

Colossians 9:9-14

For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God,  being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.  For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Ephesians 1:7-10

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment--to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.

Magic of the mind, body and soul: Our own free will

 GOD knows the heart of every man either clean or unclean
the unclean become clean thru purer thoughts which is the way of the heart thus altering the soul. Actions cannot be erased but only left behind us. Therefore leave them where they lie in the past making way for a better future.  

In time all things can be and are accomplished thru grace and nothing else!

When one seeks to destroy or discredit someone or something, one might offend certain protective forces or powers that are above their physical understanding. One must remember that GOD has created all things great and small for a certain purpose in this life. His divine force motivates and sustains all spiritual and physical life on this planet. Life without limits doesn’t exist on planet earth hence why we must all feel the sensation of pain and discomfort at times. Be careful of what and whom motivates you in order to prevent premature conflicts. Hence the difference between negative and positive or hot and cold.

 Turn negatives into positives with a shift in attitude and not altitudes.

What I learned from this besides having a good laugh is husbands really do pay attention to their wife’s eventual eccentric and non-Martian behavior. Obviously, the cartoonist or some other male person clearly spilled something on the carpet while reading or possibly even watching TV prior to drawing this cartoon. You can rest assured that grandma or even the Road Runner is the last thing ones mind when this happens. For when this happens to some men, the sight of grandma or the Coyote in hot pursuit would be a more pleasant thought especially if the carpet just happened to have been new. Obviously, some people have had much better luck with such things than I have. I know respectfully ask how long have you been married to grandma?  

I say this in humor and with every respect for working tired women being wives with children at home watching cartoons.

Thank God, I now have wood and tile floors with Brawny the upright man at my side!

8  Entertainment / Laughter (Good Medicine) / IF THE PRESIDENT WERE, GOD on: May 03, 2005, 11:11:27 PM
IF THE PRESIDENT WERE, GOD:

If the President were, GOD Senator Hillary would be the Archangel Gabriel.

If the President were, GOD 911 would have been 711 and every one would have gotten a free Big Gulp.

If the President were, GOD the first lady would be the Virgin Mary.

If the President were, GOD Ariel would be a fallen Middle Eastern angel.

If the President were, GOD the White House would be the white throne in heaven having one of Ezekiel’s wheels with eyes all around on the floor of the oval office.

If the President were, GOD the number 6 would be a divine number being representative of the letter W in Hebrew.

If the President were, GOD http://www. would not exist as Al Gore would have never invented it.

If the President were, GOD the State of Texas would be the Promised Land and the red sea the red river making Moses an American citizen having been born somewhere in Arkansas and raised in Oklahoma.

If the President were, God the Israelites would have been American Indians seeking the Promised Land of Texarkana.  

If the President were, GOD there would be no Social Security as the poor and elderly would simply not live longer than they should.

If the President were, GOD the Persian Gulf would be the Gulf of Mexico making Mexico Saudi Arabia and therefore no need for better border security.

If the President were, GOD Geronimo would have been Pharaoh whom built the Sphinx (Pharaoh on horseback) in the Valley of Chiefs near the Pyramids of the Wichita Mountains.  

If the President were, GOD the Magi would have seen a star in the west and came bearing gifts of Saudi Arabian refined crude riding upon tanker ships instead of Camels.

If the President were, GOD there would be no Polar Ice or winter since it would be summer all year round.

If the President were, GOD Noah’s Ark would have had only two Elephants on board as Noah, his family and all the other animals would have walked the plank.

 Grin


I absolutely have no animosity towards the president as this is for entertainment purposes only and therefore is not written as political propaganda against any party or persons. I just have a way of looking at the world from different points of view and in light of current events and the issues.

Angels Crossing America


I write this after contemplating the question “How can we Americans truly find happiness and love in our lives today?” After praying, studying and meditating on this question I have discovered some truths for life (revealed), which if put into practice just might enrich us affording us happier and healthier lives. What I write here is based upon personal and spiritual experiences therefore affording me knowledge, happiness, faith, and hope. First, I must tell a short personal story on how my own life evolved.

When my life began, my mother and father after birth had me committed to GOD, as they felt so inclined to do at that time and in a very special way. Since that time, I have developed a very special and unique spiritual connection to him and his creation. I do not tell you this to brag or make light but to testify that GOD in spite of other people and things has truly blessed me repeatedly in very awesome and unique ways. You see I had a very troubled childhood filled with abuse from very abusive and even angry ugly people at times. I never showed these angry ones disrespect as a young person or adult because God gave me a heart of endurance and patience with others. It seems these never ever really tried to see who I was as some tried to fit me in a mold that people whom were more correct wanted. This usually results in tremendous suffering to a person and even severe tragedy. I tell you this personal information about me because I want to share how God’s hand has helped me as I have endured abuse from certain other people just because I am perceived different “Super Quiet” and a bit more eccentric and sensitive than most other modern social stereotypes. The positive here is thru all of this and time GOD has blessed me in unique ways affording me never to loose my faith and hope. I will tell you now God’s promises are as concrete with faith mixing in like water and thus starting the whole process giving you a wonderful love, happiness, and everlasting hope. Faith is hearing, believing, and acting which in time gives us love, happiness, and hope and thru these, our eventual sanctification, and salvation.                      

I know many of you can associate with what I say here as many have faced those eventual trials and storms of life. My wife and I are no strangers to storms and trials as we have just celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary and have lost one child from unnatural and tragic events. For me personally life has not always been the Bed of Roses some might enjoy as God has had very special plans for me since I came to this earth. Simply put God has made me to be obedient and sometimes with a price tag attached but in return, he gave me a special heart and relationship to him. On the positive side of this, I have enjoyed many victories in life the likes of which has only taught, revealed, humbled, and strengthened me personally. From where I stand spiritually today, God has blessed me not in materialistic ways but with knowledge and gifts gained thru experiences of faith, study, and obedience. By acting thru faith, and observing this over time one can become familiar with his hand and therefore become witness to God’s proactive nature in the word. I have personally witnessed miracles in this life with some of them almost being non-existent in appearance to some. This is what I wanted to share with you being namely God’s hand on the world thru the interaction of his angels with you even though you may not be aware of it.

Have you ever had an encounter with a perfect stranger whom seemed to come from nowhere only to eventually leave but before or after this event, you start noticing mysterious or even unexplained occurrences affecting your life? If you say yes to this as some might you have personally crossed the path of an angel doing God’s will on this earth. This has happened repeatedly for some and they have not even noticed it. An occurrence of such might be as if you have just lost a precious loved one and boom one day unexpectedly there is a fair, well-dressed, polite man or woman standing in front of you asking, telling, needing or even helping you. These people just seem to sense what you need even if it is just a simple word of encouragement. They also can give you a positive feeling just by standing or sitting by you. By interacting with you, they certainly can make you feel different in an instant just as if it was meant to be for you at that time. How you might react to this depends on your spiritual walk with GOD as these are subconsciously connected to him and his universe as you are. If you have ever encountered a person, who after looking at them gave you feelings of conviction, happiness or even an unexplained and simplistic authority then you might have met one of God’s special servants. You will usually discover this later on, as one thing will happen in your future that will connect them to you by making you recall that one special instance in time.    

Would you call me crazy if I told you these are crossing over and working in America right now doing God’s will, which is to interact with you in unique ways thus leaving the touch of his hand on your life? If you say, “Yes this is lunacy” then I have to ask is there demonic forces or evil people in America?

What I am talking about here is not a bum whom goes forth only to eventually return but rather out of place people that just one day appear having very peculiar even strange appearances or messages. GOD does these things to teach us of his hand thru his servants doing his will, which is designed to help us in some way or get our attention. Some of you may have been visited repeatedly only to have not ever noticed it even once. Of course, there are Archangels but very few ever get the chance to see one because to see one is to partially look upon the glory of the lord. If this ever happens to you, you are truly very special indeed and commissioned with a special divine task on this earth.  

I want to share with you Kevin whom just might visit you one day as an example. Kevin is a manservant of GOD whom you will see walking down the back roads of America passing into your town being very polite and superficially dressed for a man on foot. When he approaches, he will politely greet you and might even ask you if there is some work, he can do for a meal. Kevin is special because he is oddly clean in appearance although he has been traveling for days.  Kevin has wisdom and if you listen may reveal something to you for your own benefit. He is special if you will listen to him; as he will share knowledge of people, places, and things and can literally travel days without the amenities of life.

If you see Kevin give him an appropriate greeting with food and drink because if you knew what GOD reveals thru him you would stand where many do today. I say to Bob, Ann, and Mr. Wood’s GOD Bless you for giving and thus helping yourselves to an unseen blessing. Though you may have not known it you have been visited by a special one. What can GOD teach you thru such encounters with seemingly ordinary people that just unexpectedly affect you in an instant?  

If you want to be happy in this life, you can find happiness and love by first showing love to yourself then loving others consistently without wavering and thus receiving the gift of happiness for having done it. Just as love takes time to find it is thru time and love that, you will find a lasting happiness. This process begins with you and thru God’s special ones like Kevin both of whom he loves. If you have pain in your life left by the weakness of other people let it go, becoming kinder towards others and in return, you too in time will find love and happiness, which will virtually astound you and those around you.

I will go down with this ship, and will not put a white flag above my door because I have learned of and experienced God’s love of us thru the lives of others, which puts hope in my heart for humankind forever.    

Inspired by and thru God for eternity as each one of us on earth are!

10  Theology / Prophecy - Current Events / Re:Leviathan? on: May 01, 2005, 10:46:25 PM
Where has Satan’s domain been since Job according to scripture?

JOB 1:7

One day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them.  The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Satan answered the LORD, "From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it."


Revelation 12:1-12

A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.  She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.  Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on his heads. His tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child the moment it was born.  She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne.  The woman fled into the desert to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.

And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.  But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

  Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:

  "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God,
    and the authority of his Christ.
    For the accuser of our brothers,
    who accuses them before our God day and night,
    has been hurled down.

  Therefore rejoice, you heavens
   and you who dwell in them!
  But woe to the earth and the sea,
    because the devil has gone down to you!
  He is filled with fury,
    because he knows that his time is short."

Revelation 20:1-3

And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.  He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.

Satan is our accuser before the Lord GOD Almighty and as our adversary, he and his spirits roam through the earth even going back and forth in it. As far as the numbers of Legions and Demons, only GOD knows the exact number but what I have comes from what has been shown to me thru many years of study and prayer. If you go into fasting and prayer seeking GOD’s will for you he might guide you in this.

Fell here means to fall from GOD's grace never to repent a sin and be forgiven for it. Can Satan and his Demons repent their sins right now and be forgiven setting all heaven and earth free of evil? Ever read “Mutiny on the Bounty” but instead of neglect think of gaining power in order to overthrow GOD and his holy Angels. This was Lucifer’s sin against GOD. To serve or worship one of the Chief spirits listed is the same as serving Lucifer and Satan.

GOD himself did not advocate evil it was an occurrence from the free will of other divine spirits (Lucifer) and thus a fall from his divine plan for them. GOD today does not kill but waits patently for his divine plan to come full circle which is the eventual evolution of our planet, which by design returns us right back to him.

The people who die in the wake of natural events are part of the evolution of life on this planet and thus not directly GOD killing men, women and children. Just like, it was not GOD who talked Lucifer into his spiritual Mutiny on the Bounty, it was not GOD that told Ted Bundy to kill. These are all examples of mans free will killing people. However, there is a time of wrath that will be provoked by the operation of repeated disobedience, which will be carried out by his appointed angels and divine spirits (Leviathan for one) but here there is also GOD's mercy if you pray for it. This current generation of man can provoke it if he is not repentant of his free will sins of destroying the whole earth.
(Ezekiel 1, Revelation 6, Psalms 99:1, Habbakuk 3:1-12, Revelation 11:18, Jeremiah 51:25)

Here is an answer concerning GOD and the killing of innocent people as well.
11  Theology / Prophecy - Current Events / Re:Leviathan? on: May 01, 2005, 07:23:19 PM
Leviathan is a gliding, coiling serpent of the sea.  
Isaiah 27:1

One of the four evil and chief princes (Lucifer, Satan, Leviathan and Belial) of earth:
LEVIATHAN: From Hebrew, LVIThN (usually written Leviathan instead of Leviatan), - the Crooked or Piercing Serpent or Dragon.

Job 3:8,  Job 41:1 and Psalms 104

Revelation 13:1

And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.

Revelation 12:7

And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.



The 4 Chief Spirits of Earth:

Lucifer: From Latin, Lux, Light, and Fero, to bear, - A Light Bearer. There is a name “Lucifuge” also employed occasionally, from Lux, Light, and Fugio, to fly from, - He whoshuns the Light.

LEVIATAN: From Hebrew, LVIThN (usually written Leviathan instead of Leviatan), - the Crooked or Piercing Serpent or Dragon.

Satan: From Hebrew, ShTN, =  The Chief Adversary.

Belial: From Hebrew, BLIOL, = a Wicked One.

Poltergeists are manifestations of these and their servant spirits those belonging to Satan whom fell from heaven with his angels.

These fallen angels being namely:

Asmodee: from the Hebrew word “Asamod,” to destroy or exterminate.
Belzebud: from Hebrew, BOL, = Lord, and ZBVB,= Fly or Flies; Lord of Flies.
Oriens: Evil Eastern spirit of the four quarters of the World.
Paimon: from Hebrew, POMN, = a tinkling sound or small bell.
Ariton: from the Hebrew root ORH, = to lay bare, to make naked.
Amaimon: spirit of terrible violence and vehemence.

Of these there were also and additional 316 spirits total that fell from heaven and of these 316 there are virtually thousands of servant spirits that fell as well. And we wonder why the earth is in its current condition.  

It seems that by the names given these spirits by GOD they were created with his omnipotence in mind and named before their fall. Simply put divine evil sprits with power over physical things on earth. However, not near GOD’s omnipotent power. The bad part is these were cast to the earth but never fear because they fear GOD in all things as we do and in turn, they fear us as well if we have his spirit in us. Hence the difference you see in a good person and an evil person. We are all created with good and evil tendencies, which are up to us to learn to control in this life, which is a power, granted us only thru prayer and fasting.

If you study, and pray for understanding GOD will enlighten you but better yet never go exploring spiritual things on your own without his help and guidance. If someone tells you, they will obey you and give you things well just do not go there, as it will cost you your soul. I give you the same warning given to me thru  prayer. You just might loose your soul in the process if you mess with such spiritual things.    

The 4 Chief Archangels over heaven and Earth:

Gabriel: Angel of beginnings and of other natural occurrences.
Michael: Mighty protector of heaven and earth.
Raphael: Healing angel and overseer of the virtues of lesser angels.
Uriel: Angel of Arts and Repentance.

Lower Earthly Orders:
Virtues: Miracle workers.
Powers: Angels of the Universe.
Principalities: Protectors and regulators.

Angels: Your guardian angel and angels in the physical form.

I want to indicate here that the Archangels or the lesser Angels will not serve you directly without GOD’s direct intervention. Man and Woman are simply so much lower on the scale of spiritual things than Angels whom are of a superior intelligence and form. You cannot imagine the intelligence of just one of these beings although one of them knows not all things. If you ever encounter an angelic being, it will state its name and what is there to do for you. They only will appear directly in front of you and will warn you accordingly. I call them it (Angel) here because these do not look exactly as we do in human form at least the one I saw did not although I gather from others some Angels do.    

According to my current knowledge, these Angels have been with GOD from the creation of the world and visit us on earth regularly. As I said, I believe I encountered a divine Angel in my life once. The appearance of which was overwhelming and appropriate for me at the time (fasting and praying for answers). Of the orders of Powers and Principalities, these are good as well as evil fallen angels and some mixed. GOD does no evil himself since he allows the fallen ones this task over man. The nice part here is man was created above the fallen evil angels so they would have a natural fear of him and his spirit. The evil Chief spirits however are more defiant of mankind.  If you are ever tempted by, an evil spirit you would immediately know or feel it but this occurrence is rare, as evil fallen spirits do not like us however; they do and can plant evil thoughts in our minds (temptations) which are usually to harm someone or something thus going against GOD will for us. Some of the magical arts rely on evil spirits like Bel (Belial) to work but as I have previously stated you would know if someone ever used evil against you.              
   
I am sorry for this lengthy explanation but when I saw it, I got an irresistible feeling to reply with this information. If you want to know more on this, you can email me, as this is a life’s work of study and seeking the truth.Be careful it is a literal spiritual jungle out there these days.      

Beleve me there is a GOD, Angels and Devils!

Has anyone been watching the Cartoon Garfield lately?

For the last two months, this Fat cat has been literally making fun of his caregiver Jon at times and even physically assaulting him and others in the strip. Take today for instance May 01, 2005 Jon’s on the roof fixing the warped leaky shingles and all of the sudden Whump! He is on his back flat with the Fat cat saying, “I strongly suspect the shingles were loose” with Jon crying “Mommy”. I guess Garfield can operate the can opener by himself since he certainly is not concerned with Jon and therefore in part his own welfare.

You have really missed Jon’s demoralization if you have not been reading Garfield over the last few months. I have read this cartoon for years and have never seen Jon treated by Garfield in such a fashion for such a long a time. I guess even Garfield (the fat cat) these days is feeling the pressures of modern life in America.

I wonder what Jon might do to Garfield (Fat Cat) after he gets too dirty as fat overfed cat’s can occasionally get after playing? Jon just might give him a nice flea bath with lots of soap and water.

You simply must watch Jon and Garfield in the future since Garfield is certainly no hero with upright virtues and these days seem to be getting more intolerant of Jon at times.  By watching Garfield many years, I think Garfield is a reflection of the social order of things and our reaction to them. I can definitely associate with Jon at times and at other times with Garfield. It seems these days I find myself becoming more familiar in association with Jon than Garfield. Either way Jon seems to be getting sleeper while Garfield (the Fat Cat) gets fatter and more intolerant as fat house cats become in due time. One can see great semblances between American Left wing and Right wing differences reflected here as well as some social groups and their behaviors. I have always been very good at noticing and interpreting graphic and auditory symbolisms. If you are paying attention, you too may find subconscious messages in art, music, literature, and video. This is our own psyche and those of others trying to communicate with us thru our subconscious (even being angelic or divine in nature). We have the science of the human mind to prove this possible today.

Is Jon as asleep and stupid as he seems to be at times in Garfield’s wake since March 2005?

Maybe Garfield needs to remember the old saying “Never bite the hand that feeds you.” I would love others to share their opinion on this and how it might relate to our social condition at times as well as the issues and problems we all face and their influences on our psyche. If you watch and read carefully, you just might notice something here. There were some semblances around the Schiavo case on March 16th-20th, 22nd, 24th and 31st 2005.

Jim Davis Garfield’s creator has great genius and artistic talents as I have spent half a lifetime reading this cartoon and associating it to our current social condition and issues. His psyche seems to be aware of where we are going socially more than others are at times as I have found great symbolism is his artwork.

What do you think about this symbolism in the media and is God or his angels trying to tell us something thru our media? Are we like Jon and partially asleep at times where issues and even our salvation are concerned? It seems to me Jon is befalling allot of misfortune lately in the wake of Garfield whom seems to always be in control while quietly scorning and even abusing other characters.

If you watch, listen and read in the future I think, you will notice this phenomenon!

13  Theology / Prophecy - Current Events / Re:USA in prophecy? on: April 29, 2005, 10:55:29 PM
Concerning the post by Glitterz on Ezekiel 1:4-25

Believe me there are no aliens coming to rescue us from ourselves. Let me help you interpret this consider a large circle (7 feet in diameter as one wheel on the ground) then visualize a smaller circle inside it (6.5 feet in diameter forming a wheel looking as if intersecting a wheel) and between these at each compass point around the circles are marked out (4 directions forming the 4 rims) containing the powerful names of god that is assigned to a particular compass point on earth (N,S,E,W).  These are of course written using Hebrew letters where each name is made from the name Yod He Vau He (Tetragramation: IHVH - Jehovah) and symbolic of the most high and awesome rims with eyes all around. The Hebrew characters Yod in the names of GOD around the circles 4 rims (compass points) form the I’s all around and are representative and do form the most high and awesome names of GOD.

Of course, there is more but the spirit is key to the operation and function of these wheels which is in the creatures and thus inside the wheels which do not turn about. The sound of rushing waters, which sound like a tumult of an army, the voice of the almighty is the powerful name of Adonai Elohim Tzabaoth Shaddai (Lord God of Armies). The faces of the creatures are described thus pointing us to the particular constellations as clues to each living creature and its power. Rushing waters are just that the force of natural waters upon the earth. These spirits have the power of Cherubim. Virgo, Leo, Capricornus (OX of Chinese astronomy) and Aquila are your clues to the faces which consist of a Man, Lion, Ox and Eagle with 2 wings. These constellations are key because they have to be joined in a left, right fashion in some way forming the 4 faces of each living creature with 2 wings being raised upwards and with each wing touching another creature on either side.This fits the description of what Ezekiel saw and may help you understand the description given.

Their legs were straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze. Under their wings on their four sides, they had the hands of a man. All four of them had faces and wings.
Ezekiel 1:7-8

Physical men tried and tested by GOD thru many trials made strong and gleaming like burnished bronze or made worthy of God awesome might. Simply put an Angel or Cherubim in the human form on earth. (Angels on earth in human form even possibly an ELOHIM) I believe ELOHIM were 'divine beings' in ancient Israel in man form like Samuel, Saul and also the sons of GOD.
1 Samuel 28:10-13 also see Cherubim below.

The appearance of the living creatures was like burning coals of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning flashed out of it.
Ezekiel 1:13, Psalms 99:1

Simply put the power of a Cherubim spirit before the glory of the Lord on earth and in the Milky Way galaxy the great sparkling crystal expanse.

Cherubim:
   Winged creatures combining human and animal features. To the Greeks and Romans these were also, centaurs or men made up of part man and part horse.We now are clearly referring to the intro by the voice of the 4 living creatures whom announce the 4 apocalyptic horseman of Revelation 6.

Let’s just say you wouldn’t want one of these men as an enemy for sure.

Do not use the names of GOD in vain ever!

Is the USA in Prophecy of the Bible?
This you can be sure of as the stars are in the heavens.

Part V  

God’s divine plan:

      God’s divine plan is of the pouring fourth of his cup (Crater) thus manifesting the return of our Lord Jesus Christ (Leo) which is soon to come to trample the serpent (Hydra) with the cross of Sextans thru the heart. We can see this message in the tail of Leo (Denebola) and in the head of Virgo thru which lies one mystery of the Sphinx (10 Virgo) the road of the descent of the Pharaohs of Egypt and of the Star of David. The Sphinx tells of the coming harvest of the ears of corn or wheat each season and of those that Virgo pours out into this earth thru the union of male and female. It is through the fruitfulness of the woman (Mary) and by the tail and body of the Lion (which goes fourth and returns) that the springs of life flow. We also see in the going forth of that Lion in time (Regulus, Alpha Leo) and being defeated on the cross (Sextan of Urania, the Trinity standing on Alphard, Alpha Hydra) that the serpent (Satan and his demons, Hydra’s spirits) are punished and brought down before the feet of the Lion (Regulus) and trodden upon thru the cup of God’s wrath Crater which is God literally pouring this down on his head. This is the power which was given by birthright thru the body of the Lion which was Christ Jesus (Lion of Judah) and the fruitfulness of the woman (Virgo, Mary). We now stand at the door and await this glorious return of Omega Pisces. In the beginning the constellations were ordained and placed among the stars for all to see (Proverbs 3:19-26, Isaiah 45:12). Obviously few have ever looked up and paid attention to see God’s messages there and this is just one of those mysteries of life on this earth. This is the majesty of the Lord God of Hosts and the testimony of the wondrous works of his hands which he himself marshaled from the beginning of all time relative to earth. When the Lord thunders who shall not fear or marvel at the mighty works of his hands in which all things are brought to completion and are fulfilled before him. Literally!


For it was written upon the heavens and the earth from the beginnning of creation.

 ISAIAH 45:12
  "It is I who made the earth
    and created mankind upon it.
  My own hands stretched out the heavens;
    I marshaled their starry hosts."
  says the LORD Almighty.

 PSALMS 104:1-4
    Praise the LORD, O my soul.

   O LORD my God, you are very great;
    you are clothed with splendor and majesty.
   
   He wraps himself in light as with a garment;
    he stretches out the heavens like a tent

    and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters.
   He makes the clouds his chariot
    and rides on the wings of the wind.

   He makes winds his messengers,
    flames of fire his servants.

God loves all of us and wants of keep us in perfect peace so fear and follow only him forsaking all other God’s and you will have eternal life in great abundance. He already has beat Satan and his evil so you don't have to try. So the next time Satan or one of his Deamons bother you just tell em "Look up you Devil for you were doomed from the beginning of time" and then show him the night sky in the spring. Looks like party time is about over bud!

You will see him coming in the East on a Cloud of Glory and not in a Car or Airplane!
(Mark 13:5-26, Ezekiel 43:1-5)

Is the USA in Prophecy of the Bible?
This you can be sure of as the stars are in the heavens.

Part IV        

The Hybrid Eclipse of April 8 2005:

On Friday April 8, 2005 around 18:54 GMT there was a Hybrid Solar Eclipse visible in the south western hemisphere of the Americas and at its climax (totality) in the South Pacific Ocean. This form of eclipse (‘Hybrid’) only occurs about every 365 years give or take. If you look at this event in detail you can find many interesting factors as the particular positioning of the planets namely the Sun, Moon (conjunction, eclipse) combined with Venus and Mercury are significantly placed in the constellation of Pisces the fishes directly over the Americas. I have already mentioned how Pisces historically has affected and ruled the affairs of nations. But this event seems to be directed at the southwest (2nd fish) since at this time it will be visible directly over the Americas and the Pacific Ocean. The message here is clear since the planet Mercury at approximately 11:23 GMT becomes the morning star at the second degree of Aries (Omega Pisces), which is now ‘The Leader of the Celestial Hosts’. This is significant because scripturally Christ Jesus himself has said:

"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."  
Revelation 22:16

This messenger leaves little to question as he is placed as the celestial messenger for us all to behold and observe.  This sign combined with that of Aquarius and Uranus (waves of water) in the 9th degree of Pisces (Delta Aquarius) and setting to the west indicates the southwest waters (Pacific Ocean) of the southwest fishes “The Record of the Pouring Fourth.” I also want to mention the special aspects of Neptune and Mars to the pole star Polaris comprising a line thru Cepheus (The house of 'The Alchemy of Sulfur and Arts') the crowned King with 7 Globes upon his head and refer us to Alpha Aquarius (SandalMelik) Neptune and Beta Aquarius (SandalSuud) Mars which tell us of the ‘Return of the Pourer Out’.  


"I will open rivers in high places,
and fountains in the midst of the valleys;
I will make the wilderness a pool of water,
and the dry land springs of water."
Isaiah 41:18

Above the planet Mercury (transiting near 2nd degree point of Aries, Omega Pisces) and in the stars of the second fish is ‘The Leader of the Celestial Hosts’. This pentacle (5 point star) has a Goat head or DELTA at its point and consists of a total of seven stars starting with Omega Pisces moving west along the elliptic. The message here is below the head of Andromeda (Alpha Andromeda) whom lies to the southwest of the throne of Cassiopeia which is in the house of Cepheus (Gamma Cepheus, in the peak of ‘The Alchemy of Sulfur’, DELTA) and sits before the heavenly gate (Polaris) and below the tail of the Dragon (Draco) finally resting in the southwest corner of the Pacific Ocean directly over Cetus (Leviathan). These seven stars (Andromeda’s crown) comprise the body of the 2nd fish of Pisces moving from Omega Pisces west.
(Revelation 12)

The 7 Heads are 7 hills on which the woman sits and 7 Kings (Cassiopia wife of Cepheus the King and mother of Andromeda the one with blasphemous names at her feet.)
(Revelation 17:9-18)

The Star of Earth:

With this eclipse combined with that of Leo the Lion (29 degree point, Regulus) ascending from the East there is no doubt that the Lion of Judah, does prevail here (Revelation 5:1-5). The brightest star, Alpha (on the ecliptic), marks the heart of the Lion whose ancient name is Regulus, which means treading under foot thru time. Its is Jesus the Lion of Judah that treaded down that old serpent, Hydra (the mother of all evil) by the pouring out (Pi Mentekeon) the waters from heaven (Polaris) thru the Dippers (Ursa Major and Minor) into the cup of Crater (God’s wrath) which is attached to the back of the serpant (Hydra) which has many heads (Satan and his many legions of demons). This foretells of God’s divine cup pouring out his spirit over the disobedient and wicked serpent once more (Job 3, Isaiah 27, 28:2, Psalms 74:13-15, Jeremiah 51:14-16, Jeremiah 10:13).This pouring out will bring forth waters upon the fishes which deliver tides (ripples) upon them. For it was written by Jeremiah that when the Lord God Almighty thunders the waters in the heavens roar as he makes the clouds and rains rise from the ends of the earth.

This is proven true of his nature because today the heavens roar with the heart of the Lion rising from the eastern end of this earth with the solar eclipse in Pisces (19 degree of Aries) the sign of the Ram. It is in this degree of the elliptic that we see the rise of the Great Dragon (Delta Draco) to the far north east of this point of Aries directly above the elliptic at the time of the totality of this eclipse. This rising dragon of north east will be treading down on the throne and standing upon the blasphemous names of Andromeda (feet) and Cassiopeia (the house of Cepheus) with its mouth and tail. There are blasphemous names (fallen angels) attached to Andromeda’s feet (Camelopardalis, the leopard camel under her left foot) can be seen directly above the eclipse to the north and east of Omega Pisces. At her right foot and hand is Cassiopeia (the earthly throne) and the house of Cepheus (the crowned one with the seven globes upon his head), which is the house of ‘The Alchemy of Sulfur and the Arts’. These areas of the heavens depict the earthly throne (Beast) that is set below heavens gate (Polaris) which is surrounded above and below by other beasts (Revelation 13) that provoke the manifestation of the glory of God (the return at the eastern gate) whom will descend by reversing degree (rollback of the elliptic).
