Jericho: Countdown to Oblivion - Chapter 6: The Ark of the Testimony

THE ARK AS A WEAPON

Whatever else the Ark might be, one thing is certain in the Bible: it is dangerous. It is so dangerous that the greatest king of Israel was scared to death of it. Everyone was. The Israelites relied on the Ark to win many of their battles and called for it to be brought into a battle they were losing against the Philistines with disastrous consequences: they lost the battle, and also the Ark. But, when it was captured by the Philistines, they could not wield its awesome power and were perplexed regarding the fate of this very beautiful yet terrifying artefact, so they moved it to several different cities where it brought a plague of tumours and mice upon their people, thus it was removed from their kingdom entirely (1 Samuel 6:5-12).

     The story of the Ark’s removal is even more fantastic: carried by two cows, and left to its own devices, it mysteriously guided itself back to Judea, and there are similar, strange stories about the Ark from other sources outside of the Bible including the ‘Kebra Nagast’. This highly regarded ancient text among the Ethiopian people also reports that the Ark had a mind of its own, and the ability to levitate both itself and an entire caravan on their homeward journey from Jerusalem to Ethiopia following its mysterious disappearance from the Holy of Holies inside the Temple of Jerusalem.

     During Joshua’s conquest, it was believed to be the most powerful object in the world. So powerful was this awesome weapon, that none but the Israelites dared use it. But even they were not permitted:

And when they came to the threshing-floor of Nacon, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen stumbled.

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God. (2 Samuel 6:6-7)

     Just to clarify, God did not hate Uzzah for touching the Ark, but He had no choice, it would have set a precedent. Any general would have done the same thing lest there be insubordination among the troops, which then leads to disrespect. This was often the case in the Old Testament and was the reason for a lot of the smiting. The message was made perfectly clear to everyone that day.

     Anyone who gazes upon the Ark when not permitted is smitten by the LORD and thousands have died from doing so (1 Samuel 6:19). This thing is lethal. There are also stories to this day of impure men who, upon approaching the Ark, are killed. The only man presently allowed to access it is supposedly an Ethiopian priest at the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion in Aksûm, Ethiopia, where the Ark is said to currently reside. And it is believed by the Ethiopians to have been brought there by Solomon’s firstborn son Menyelek—this information and many more revealing facts about the Ark can be found in the ‘Kebra Nagast’. According to this book, once Menyelek had reached adulthood, he returned to Jerusalem to meet with his father and later brought the Ark back with him to Ethiopia.

“The Ark is a thing of fire.”

Jericho: Countdown to Oblivion - Chapter 7: Seven Trumpets

 

YELLOWSTONE: THE BIG-BANG OF THE TRIBULATION 

The last super eruption from this volcano occurred around 640,000 years ago. The eruption before that was roughly the same amount of time, and before that it was 800,000 years between eruptions. These figures are irrelevant, however. What is much more relevant is the activity at the site itself, which is very active. Geophysics professor Robert B. Smith at the University of Utah claims the recent activity at Yellowstone National Park suggests the chamber of its super volcano is filling with magma. So although we may have thousands of years before the next “Big One”, volcanologists claim we are, in fact, overdue a super eruption, making this site a very likely candidate for the first trumpet sound of the angels of the Book of Revelation.

     The rate at which the caldera is rising has tripled since records began, lifting 6-8 centimetres per year, and there are increasing concerns as scientists monitoring the Yellowstone site from Wyoming now believe a super eruption is imminent. Emergency evacuation procedures have been formulated in and around the area for such an event, but the truth of the matter is, the only way to survive a super eruption at Yellowstone would be to leave the U.S. entirely (the last super eruption is estimated to have devastated everything within a 4,000 kilometre-squared radius).

     Although over 2,000 miles away from the “Big City”—which is also mentioned in Revelation—the effects of this eruption will completely obliterate most of North America as a pyroclastic ash cloud travelling undoubtedly in excess of the typical 300 miles an hour pummels most of the continent. The volcanic depression (caldera) alone of this volcano is between thirty-four and forty-five miles—this being the radius of its eruption, which will be so huge the entire volcano will subside.

     Oftentimes, when volcanoes collapse due to a large eruption, a large part of the mountain will fall into the sea, create a tsunami, and turn the water a different colour, and in many cases the mountain will disappear completely. This is precisely what happened the last time Yellowstone erupted; it subsided by thousands of feet and the entire mountain was gone.

     There is no denying it, Yellowstone is ready to blow. Recent seismic activity which has caused the buffalo in the region to flee for their lives is further evidence that something catastrophic may be dawning on us (animals have been known to sense natural disasters before they occur and will flee to safety well in advance).

     The first trumpet sound from the angels could be a super eruption, raining ‘fire mingled with blood’ all over the world with its enormous volcanic ash cloud and pumice. This would then blot out the sun and cover a large percentage of the earth in total darkness, as is later mentioned in Revelation 8:12:

And the fourth angel sounded; and a third part of the sun was smitten, and a third part of the moon, and a third part of the stars, and a third part of them were darkened, and the day did not appear a third part of it, nor the night. (Revelation 8:12)

     Knowing this eruption has been confirmed by scientists studying the recent activity at the Yellowstone site, and that it would fit very nicely on the Revelation timeline, what is of most concern? In the apocalyptic sense, it would be the giant earthquake and continental shift preceding this eruption, and as devastating as a super eruption would be, the upcoming earthquake should be of more concern considering our present location on the Revelation Timeline.

     Once the great earthquake causes islands to move out of their places and all the kings of the earth flee to the mountains and underground bunkers, prepare for the super eruption of Yellowstone. Following this eruption, John says the great mountain burning with fire will be cast into the sea making it like blood and destroying a third of all sea life and a third of all ships. This is unfitting with Yellowstone super volcano because it is nowhere near the sea. However, there is another volcano in a very densely populated city near the sea which is much more likely to erupt before Yellowstone. And it too, is overdue an eruption.

The great mountain, seven stades around
After peace, war, hunger, flood
Will roll far, destroying great swathes of country
Even antiquities, and mighty foundations.

 —Nostradamus C1:Q69

Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding count the number of stades, for this is the height thereof. There will be no point in running during this chaos; the only option will be to pray.

     ‘Hail and fire mingled with blood’ (Revelation 8:7) (or lava) will devastate the U.S. This eruption will be so huge a large portion of the volcano itself will be cast into the sea and turn it red, as with many eruptions, including Krakatoa, where the landslide created a megatsunami. The devastation following this eruption of the world’s largest super-volcano could trigger other eruptions worldwide, quite possibly destroying one third of the creatures and ships in the sea (Revelation 8:9).

      Yellowstone and its aftermath alone may well be responsible for not only the first, but the second and forth trumpet sounds of the angels, and boy will we hear them.

The Holy Boat

I have been away in Egypt for two weeks as part of research for a new book on the origins of Christianity. Take a look at these pictures. Prior to Moses, the ancient Egyptians also carried shrines resembling the Ark of the Covenant, with the famous Shrine of Anubis found in the tomb of King Tutankhamun being the best example. In this case, scholars originally suspected that it may have been the Ark of the Covenant.

The Holy Boat of Edfu, Egypt, curiously resembling the Ark. Incidentally, this shrine would be carried by seven high priests. The original is now housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris.

 The Holy Boat being carried by seven priests at Ramesseum.

Here is another great example of how this ancient tradition was adapted for use in early Christianity. The Bible says that God commanded Moses on how to construct the Ark and that the Ten Commandments were written by God himself on two stone tablets. Curiously, Moses was nurtured as an Egyptian prince before discovering he was an Israelite.

Jericho: Countdown to Oblivion - Chapter 14: Yahweh is Salvation

THE GOD-GIVEN TURNAROUND

There is no risk in taking risks when Jesus is in your life.

As I said earlier, my faith in Jesus ensures there are no risks in the decisions I make, and upon entrusting Him with our lives, they then become predetermined, predetermined for success. Until then we were lost, presuming to be in control of our own lives and making a complete mess of them. But now things are more promising, because we have given the most able man in the universe permission to make a few changes, to decide what is best for us.

     When God turned my life around, I was awestruck that even He was able to rearrange each turn of events which led me to that point in time. How? Was the only question on my mind. It went beyond all intelligence. Upon reflection of my past experiences, I realised some misfortunes were necessary for me to arrive at that fortunate point in time. It is in this moment that we witness the magnificent architect at work; we have received the intercession of the spirit. What a privilege that He does this especially for each and every individual. This is how loving Our Father is.

     I was into all kinds of mysteries including UFOs and extraterrestrial life, but I can remember clearly when my eyes were opened something like this:

Aliens? No. This goes way beyond that. Not even the most advanced species in all the universe could pull this off, and why would they? This is something specific for me and it had been done out of compassion, compassion that cannot be matched, one I am not worthy of considering my past, compassion unlike anything of this world. This is divine.

     This was my revelation. I do not doubt the existence of extraterrestrial life, but I knew right then that the scriptures were right: we are not the product of extraterrestrial experimentation to create a slave race of gold miners of whom the “Anunaki” can exploit. Oh no, we are much more than that; we are God’s greatest creation.

     We are loved. So much so, that everything is miraculously turned in our favour once we have a change of heart; once we make sacrifices of our own and do something for Him, He will return the favour and redesign the entire world based around us. As I said, this goes way beyond aliens. Man knows his creator once he sees this happen, and he will never doubt His existence again. The truth is, God is looking out for us like this every day, people just fail to see it; they do not see the signs and the experience is not as intense as when they become a true believer.

     God has put in place, with the help of Satan (his puppet), many distractions and adversities to test us and our faith. When we are trapped inside this matrix of deception, there are always faint opportunities to pull ourselves out yet we procrastinate, doubting their existence due to the extremely unlikely odds of their purpose targeting us specifically. How am I that important?, is the doubt preventing us from seizing those opportunities and we lose faith. But there is a world that revolves around each and every individual because God has made it that way, with our ultimate success in mind.

     God cares for us so much that He will manipulate our realities to focus on our well-being; He will bring down those walls; He will move that mountain; He will part the seas to rescue His faithful followers from their pursuing enemies; He will change the course of history if it meant that one person would do something worthwhile; He will jumpstart their life—literally; He will say, “Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon, because My people are a chosen people, and I will give them My sword and deliver them all from death.” He will change the physics of the entire universe to suit a single man . . . if he finds God.

     Let this thought remove all doubt behind those strange occurrences that seemed impossibly self-oriented. They were. It is God. And this is how He works in our lives. And this was the truth I discovered upon witnessing the great architect at work. And science does not explain the compassion that was involved when my reality was changed and God gave me a helping hand.

Jericho: Countdown to Oblivion — Chapter 11: Awake Ye Sleepers!

 

UNEQUIVOCAL AFFIRMATION OF THE FULFILMENT OF REVELATION

• The Old Babylon is present day Iraq and is experiencing mass conflict. Combined with its neighbouring countries, this is presently the world’s hottest war zone.
• New York matches every single description of the New Babylon very precisely.
• We are overdue a super eruption that would fulfil future prophecies.
• Killer Bees have begun to colonise North America and match John’s description of locusts down to the finest detail.
• A microchip implant system is now being implemented in the U.S. that will be used to enslave those who bear ‘the mark of the beast’.
• The Americans have colonised many parts of Iraq, including the Old Babylon many believe will be restored.
• Christians are being persecuted worldwide.
• Hundreds of thousands of Jews have returned to their homeland, fulfilling the prophecies of all three Old Testament prophets Isaiah (11:10-12), Jeremiah (30:3-4), and Ezekiel (37:12), respectively.
• A final ‘Battle of Armageddon’ at Megiddo is very much likely considering the large scale conflicts currently taking place in this part of the world and its strategic importance.
• An army of 200 million has now become a reality in China. Four supernatural horsemen are nothing in comparison to an army of 200 million that is unleashed and fires warheads on everything that moves, wiping out a third of man within days. This is highly possible and likely should a third world war culminate.
• We are about to reach solar maximum, which could scorch the whole planet.
• Unheard of cataclysmic disasters are becoming more commonplace and have crippled entire countries.
• Yellowstone caldera is filling with magma and rising rapidly and has received its largest earthquake in thirty years.
• The largest oil reserves are in the Middle East.
• Russia (‘Gog’) in the ‘uttermost parts of the north’ has been provoked—Ukraine, E.U. (Ezekiel 39:2).
•  “The European Union is what some of us call the first non-imperial empire, like the empires . . . and we in the commission are proud.”—José Manuel Barroso, President of the European Commission, Strasbourg, 10 July 2007
• Islamic extremists are beheading, torturing, and crucifying Christians as we speak and have driven them out of their homeland to quite literally ‘flee to the mountains’—the mountains of northwest Iraq to be precise.

Jericho: Countdown to Oblivion — Chapter 8: Eleven Horns

     In the Book of Daniel, King Nebuchadnezzar calls for his magicians, enchanters, and wise men to interpret one of his visions. He then demands them to tell him his vision and its interpretation or else he will have them all burned in a fiery furnace. Bewildered by such ridiculous orders, none are able to do so. All except one man: Daniel.

     Daniel prays to God that He will reveal Nebuchadnezzar’s vision to him, and that night it is revealed to him in a dream. He then tells Nebuchadnezzar the vision and its interpretation. The vision is regarding five great and domineering empires of the world, Nebuchadnezzar’s Babylonian empire, and four future empires God chose to reveal to the king.

     Prior to Nebuchadnezzar’s Babylonian empire were the Egyptian and Assyrian (Sumerian) empires, which, combined with the five in Daniel’s vision, make a total of seven. The empires in his vision are the following:

1.      Babylonian, ruled by Nebuchadnezzar

2.      Persian/Achaemenid, ruled by Xerxes

3.      Grecian/Athenian, ruled by Alexander the Great

4.      Roman

. . . But there will be one more, seventh empire (this being the fifth in Daniel’s vision).
