My calendar informs me that the end of this season is nigh. About our conclusions, Aaron and I have questioned and re-questioned our assumptions, interpretations of scripture, what we consider signs, and revelation insights, and assurances of many kinds, and we see nothing that compels us to waver in our conviction that we are mere days away from our bright hope being fulfilled.

We so appreciate the love letters we've been receiving, so grateful that our love in the Lord's mercy and exceeding great grace has been received. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Y'shua haMashiach, has been so good to us, so generous with favor, forgiving and kind. We long to be with the Lord and with His elect, knowing that what could be done is nearly done, and it will be enough. We servants of fine food have lingered long in the kitchen, but there's more bread and fish to be served. What an honor to be found serving in this hour!

It's not a party atmosphere around here, at least not entirely. It's tempered with the stone cold sober awareness of how many think they are ready and are about to be devastated.

As Noah finished building the ark, those around him occupied themselves with life's myriad activities, marrying and giving in marriage, as though life would go on as it always had. It had never rained before, or flooded. One hundred twenty years earlier, Noah had warned them of coming destruction but none gave heed except the seven others with him. Today, it's not very different. Life goes on. In the minds of most, judgment has never been poured out on the world, but really, it has been. Most think there has never been a resurrection of the dead and a changing of the living, but that's only partly true. Warning has been given about what is coming but for most, it is today as it ever was. Life goes on.

Until it doesn't.

Here are more models that speak loudly to us of the megas thlipsis, great tribulation.

21 For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. 22 Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short. ~ Matthew 24:21-22

A special miracle happened as a sign in the account of the great contest on Mt. Carmel, 1 Kings 18. It was between the gods of the prophets of Baal and Asterah and the Lord God of Elijah. The 950 prophets (v. 19) failed to produce the required result. For Elijah, fire fell from heaven to consume the sacrifice, right on time. Contest: Over. Elijah had prefaced it with a prayer.

Answer me, O Lord, answer me, that this people may know that You, O Lord, are God, and that You have turned their heart back again. ~ 1 Kings 18:37

I wrote about that in, Elijah's God Answers by Fire, showing it to be a prophecy about the Bride Theft and the baptism of the 144k sons of Israel. Romans 11:15, John 21 - it should be obvious. The sign informs us about our day. It conceals and reveals something about what will turn His people's hearts back to Himself.

30 Then Elijah said to all the people, "Come near to me." So all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the Lord which had been torn down. 31 Elijah took twelve stones according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the Lord had come, saying, "Israel shall be your name." 32 So with the stones he built an altar in the name of the Lord, and he made a trench around the altar, large enough to hold two measures of seed. 33 Then he arranged the wood and cut the ox in pieces and laid it on the wood. 34 And he said, "Fill four pitchers with water and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood." And he said, "Do it a second time," and they did it a second time. And he said, "Do it a third time," and they did it a third time. 35 The water flowed around the altar and he also filled the trench with water. 36 At the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet came near and said, "O Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, today let it be known that You are God in Israel and that I am Your servant and I have done all these things at Your word. 37 Answer me, O Lord, answer me, that this people may know that You, O Lord, are God, and that You have turned their heart back again." 38 Then the fire of the Lord fell and consumed the burnt offering and the wood and the stones and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 39 When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, "The Lord, He is God; the Lord, He is God." ~ 1 Kings 18:30-39

Twelve stones - the time number. Four pitchers, three times filled with water and poured out on the sacrifice. 4*3=12. Again, the time number. Water-as-time. It was the appointed amount of time, in the fullness of time. The sacrifice was drenched and water filled the circular trench. When fire fell from heaven, the sacrifice was consumed along with everything in the circle. What was burned up speaks of the Messiah and His people. The appointed measure of time itself was consumed by heaven's fire! And, there's a time code: After three things are completed, then comes the fulfillment. Familiar, right - the Keystone Pattern? First, came three dousings in sequence with 4 pitchers of water (4-dimensions of time-space), which men do. Then, the Lord brings the fire, answering Elijah and performing the sign to the people that He is God, not the idols they have been worshiping, and that He has turned their heart back again. This prophecy is about to be fulfilled.

Have you read through the account of the Exodus yet, understanding the prophetic allegory where water represents time? Dry land in the midst of the sea between walls of water as time-space ark. Those saved went through in martial array, and armies march in step. Left right left... keeping time. Read the song of Moses and the sons of Israel in Exodus 15 mindful of the water-as-time metaphor.

16 "Terror and dread fall upon them;
By the greatness of Your arm they are motionless as stone;
Until Your people pass over, O Lord,
Until the people pass over whom You have purchased.
17 "You will bring them and plant them in the mountain of Your inheritance,
The place, O Lord, which You have made for Your dwelling,
The sanctuary, O Lord, which Your hands have established.
18 "The Lord shall reign forever and ever."
19 For the horses of Pharaoh with his chariots and his horsemen went into the sea, and the Lord brought back the waters of the sea on them, but the sons of Israel walked on dry land through the midst of the sea.
~ Exodus 15:16-19

Awesome! The chapter closes with more water allegory at Marah, then at Elim.

Then they came to Elim where there were twelve springs of water and seventy date palms, and they camped there beside the waters. ~ Exodus 15:27

Provision will be made subsequent to this Pesah season's time wars, as before, now.

Time wars will be fought. Here's an account of 12 stones, the time number, taken from the Jordan.

19 Now the people came up from the Jordan on the tenth of the first month and camped at Gilgal on the eastern edge of Jericho. 20 Those twelve stones which they had taken from the Jordan, Joshua set up at Gilgal. 21 He said to the sons of Israel, "When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, 'What are these stones?' 22 then you shall inform your children, saying, 'Israel crossed this Jordan on dry ground.' 23 For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed, just as the Lord your God had done to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed; 24 that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, so that you may fear the Lord your God forever." ~ Joshua 4:19-24

Note, as I write, it is now the 10th day of the 1st month. Lord willing there's more commentary forthcoming about the account of the taking of Jericho, and the Passover model.

The test for selecting Gideon's army of 300 took place at the water's edge, with respect to how they drank water.

The most exalted of the Lord's warriors has to be David, when he was a boy. He killed Goliath with a water worn object chosen from a brook in the valley of Elah.

He took his stick in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag which he had, even in his pouch, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.

48 Then it happened when the Philistine rose and came and drew near to meet David, that David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. 49 And David put his hand into his bag and took from it a stone and slung it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead. And the stone sank into his forehead, so that he fell on his face to the ground.
~ 1 Samuel 17:40, 48-49

We believe that some of us are about to enter the ark of salvation, and others of us will find ourselves barred from entering. We have all received fair warning.

3 Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, 4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation." 5 For when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that by the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was formed out of water and by water, 6 through which the world at that time was destroyed, being flooded with water. 7 But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. ~ 2 Peter 3:3-7

Descendants of Red Lady of El Miron Found In Cave In Italy

By:  Marshall Ramsey II, Worthy News U.S. Correspondent

PUGLIA, Italy -- (WorthyNews)  A cave filled with both animal, and human, bones bears witness to a bizarre ancient burial ritual known as de-fleshing.  It is the process by which the flesh is removed from a person's bones after death, and appears to be a pre-Israelite burial ritual similar to that of the ossuary.

Called Scaloria Cave and found in the Tavoliere region of southeastern Italy, it is a "stalactite-filled grotto" that has the bones of both humans and animals scattered about, and practiced all over the world, say researchers writing in the latest issue of Antiquity.  Sealed off until its discovery in 1931, Scaloria Cave was "uniquely able to preserve" the human remains that were mixed randomly with animal bones, stone tools, and broken pottery.  This appears to be the "first well-documented case for early farmers in Europe of people trying to actively deflesh the dead," says John Robb, an archaeologist at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom and project leader.

Testing performed on the skeletons present (few whole skeletons were present, suggesting that only certain bones were buried) revealed light cut marks, suggesting that residual muscle tissue only needed to be removed at the time of defleshing.  This means that the remains were likely placed in the cave as much as a year after death.  This practice is a pre-cursor to the Israelite custom of burying the dead, letting the flesh rot from the person's bones, and then taking up the bones and sealing them in a small coffin called an ossuary.  This suggests a cultural connection going back hundreds of years, even before the time of the Great Flood of Genesis 6.

Pre-Flood communities, sometimes called Neolithic communities, typically buried their dead beneath or beside their homes, or on the outskirts of settlements.  In the case of Scaloria Cave, it seems as though farmers from villages as far as 15 to 20 kilometers (9 to 15 miles) away deposited the bones of their dead here, suggesting a communal burial plot, not unlike our modern cemeteries today.

"Neolithic assemblages are often very challenging to interpret, as they are commonly broken, mixed up, and poorly preserved," says Martin Smith, a biological anthropologist at Bournemouth University in the United Kingdom, who was not involved in the research.

The defleshed bones of the dead relatives were scattered in the upper chamber of Scaloria Cave.  But why?  What was the significance of the practice, if any?  Was there a religious significance to it?

The answer lies in the Feast of Passover, the Israelite feast commemorating God's deliverance of the Israelites at the cost of Egypt's first-born.  Typically, a two-story house in ancient Israel consisted of a lower level for livestock and an upper level for the family.  A person eating in the upper room signified a man dwelling with God in Heaven.  (Eternal) death had passed them by, and they now enjoyed life everlasting.  Anything left over after the Passover supper was required to be burned with fire.  This signified what is known as "second death," when the devil, his angels, and the unrighteous humans will be cast into hellfire, burning forever.

Interestingly, photos of the bones found in Scaloria Cave appear to show the same red ochre that is found on the bones of the Red Lady of El Miron, now identified as Eve (Chaweh in Hebrew), the first woman who ever lived, and the wife of Adam.  Obviously the descendants of Adam and Eve, the persons interred in Scaloria Cave also appear to have shared in her religious beliefs, specifically the need for a blood covering to protect one from divine judgment after death.  This symbolism is found only in the Christian faith, in that only the blood of Jesus Christ can save us from the punishment issued by God for our sins.  While it is true that the Israelite animal sacrifices came first and were important when they were given, the reason Yahweh (Jehovah) gave them is so that they could show the way to Jesus Christ and his then future sacrifice for us.

Note the positions of the bones of the Red Lady/Eve in El Miron Cave in Spain and those of the people in Scaloria Cave in Italy:  The same.  Note also the positions of the animal bones in both caves:  The same.  Note further the use of the red ochre, long used as a symbol for blood, in covering the bones:  The same.  Since blood signifies life, it stands to reason that the reason the bones were covered in red ochre meant the persons buried believed in a life after death, one that was very pleasurable, one that involved the resurrection of the dead, not of spirit only, but the resurrection of the body.

It appears as though Eve, having sinned in the garden of Eden, believed the promise of God for a savior, one that would shed his blood for her and die in her place, and passed this belief onto her children, and her children's children, even as many as would receive it.

While bones found without the blood representation of the red ochre does not necessarily mean that the person rejected God and his salvation, it certainly does give us an amazing look at the founding of the Hebrew culture and that of the Christian faith, one that stretches all the way back to our very beginnings with Adam and Eve.

Fw: The Open Scroll Blog - James Bond; Spectre Trailer; Beast Time Code






The Open Scroll Blog

The Open Scroll Blog


Posted: 29 Mar 2015 06:09 PM PDT
If you watched the video presented in the previous post and grasped the time code messaging, you'll see more of the same in this new official video of the James Bond 007: "Spectre" teaser trailer.



The official blurb is laden with NLP. "See the first teaser trailer for the 24th James Bond adventure SPECTRE. A cryptic message from Bond's past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organisation. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE."

Aaron and I noted that the teaser trailer is packed with symbolism, like stargate transit (transporters traveling across Thames-Isis on arched bridge) , Apollo (crows-ravens)... He is told, "You're a kite dancing in a hurricane, Mr Bond." Kite: bird of prey, like a falcon or hawk, an NLP symbol strengthened by the startling crows. Hurricane, spirit time vortex wormhole. Recall CERN's Symmetry trailer!

The main interest is what happens at 1 minute 13 seconds in. We hear, "It's been a long time." It's the man's response to seeing Bond. The appearance of the lawless one on the 13th day of the 1st month - familiar - from out of the distant past - from a long time ago. He is the spectre! Listen for the tinkling sounds. The tinkling of bells signals dimensional transit, first heard at 1:09. At 1:16 the bell rings again and we see a man sitting at a table, his face is in the shadows, on the table is a large pitcher of water and a glass. Water-time. He says, "And finally, here we are," accompanied by more bell tinkling. Then we see what is evidently a bullet punching a hole in glass or ice, at 1:21. The event resembles a particle collision in a supercollider. We see it as the LHC, punching a hole through the dimensional barrier with atomic particles fired from a "machine gun." Deadly. The trailer ends with the word, SPECTRE, appearing, with the "C" forming around the bullet hole. "C" it's the Eye of Horus, or, (spect)"RE". OT is circle cross ~ MOB.

If you watched, Snowpiercer, the bullethole symbolism should be familiar because you saw a scene featuring a gun battle when the "time" train with the eternal engine was making a tight loop. Bullets were fired from machine guns between two cars, one many cars ahead of the other. Folded time-space. Time jump through the frozen (water-time) expanse between them. Bullets pierced the window glass, piercing the time-space barrier.

Spectre is the 24th film in the franchise. We're in the 24th year of a very special count, which began at the celestial sign of 1991 marking the Lord's return in judgment. This is the year appointed for the spectre to manifest. It's very nearly the 13th day of the 1st month, when we should expect his revealing, being day 9 as I type this out. The Occult value of the word spectre is 19+16+5+3+20+18+5=86. We're in Shemitah 860 counted from Adam and it's all about the 86ing of the age. As the man said, "FINALLY - here we are!"



If it's been a while since you visited the Mark of the Beast Code 666 Blog, you'll find that we have published several posts in the past few weeks.

Countdown to the Apocalypse: Why ISIS and Ebola Are Just the Beginning




Book by Dr. Robert Jeffress

In this eye-opening book, Bible prophecy expert and Fox News contributor Dr. Robert Jeffress offers a reasoned look at these signs and what Jesus Christ Himself meant when He talked about a future so horrendous that no human lives would be spared "unless those days were shortened"  (Matthew 24:22).  Did Jesus have our time in mind?  All over the world, people are aware that something unprecedented in human history is about to happen.
COUNTDOWN TO THE APOCALYPSE presents vital information that both believers and skeptics need to know to be prepared.

Book by Tom Doyle


To many Christians in the Middle East today, a "momentary, light affliction" means enduring only torture instead of martyrdom.  The depth of oppression Jesus followers suffer is unimaginable to most Western Christians.  Yet, it is an everyday reality for those who choose faith over survival in Syria, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon and other countries hostile to the Gospel of Christ.  In Killing Christians, Tom Doyle takes readers to the secret meetings, the grim prisons, and even the executions that are the "calling" of countless Muslims-turned-Christians.
Each survivor longs to share with brothers and sisters "on the outside" what Christ has taught them.  Killing Christians is their message to readers who still enjoy freedom to practice their faith. In spite of the title, it is a remarkably uplifting book filled with faith building stories.

Did you ever expect to see those three words linked to the U.S.-Israel relationship? Have we fallen down a hole and we now are in an "Alice-in-Wonderland" world? America embraces her enemies and lifts sanctions on Iran. She will likely place sanctions on Israel. It is an upside down world. Is the Mad Hatter in charge?
 
Things aren't falling apart--they're falling in place.
 
The entire world is in the process of abandoning Israel which the Bible foretells in Zechariah 12:3. It is ultimately fulfilled in the Tribulation but the process begins much sooner.  
 
Here's what some are saying.
  
Pamela Geller, President of the American Freedom Defense Initiative  and Stop Islamization of America says, "The White House actions against Israel and Prime Minister Netanyahu are a 'jihad against the Jews.'"
 
She refers to the story broken by Israel National News that the Obama administration declassified a Department of Defense top-secret document with details of Israel's nuclear assets, a highly covert topic that Israel has never formally announced to avoid a regional nuclear arms race.
 
Geller states that Israel has shared its nuclear secrets with America for decades. They just never imagined someone in the White House would stoop so low as to reveal them to the world.
 
Joel Rosenberg says, "There is mounting evidence that Obama is preparing to 'divorce Israel.' Once it would have been preposterous even to ask such a question. Today, it feels like it's a matter of 'when', not 'if' Mr. Obama will formally abandon American support for the Jewish State. And the situation is rapidly going from bad to worse."
 
Rosenberg cites some headlines:
  • U.S. Could Abandon Israel at the U.N. (CNN)
  • Washington Threatens to Abandon Israel at the U.N. (Times of London)
  • The U.S.-Israel Relationship is at "The Lowest Point in the Alliance That Diplomatic Sages Can Recall (New York Times)
  • Israel-White House Relations at All-Time Low (Breaking Israel News)
  • Iran Deal Worse Than Israel Feared (Times of Israel)
Rosenberg states, "For an American President, or Congress, or the American people, to turn against Israel and the Jewish people would be more than bad policy or unfortunate politics. According to Bible prophecy, such moves would pose an existential threat to the future of the United States."
  
Israeli commentator Caroline Glick writes, "the administration's animosity toward Israel is a function of Obama's twin strategic aims, both evident since he entered office: realigning U.S. policy in the Middle East toward Iran and away from its traditional allies Israel and the Sunni Arab states, and ending the US's strategic alliance with Israel.

"Over the past six years, we have seen how Obama has consistently, but gradually, taken steps to advance these two goals. Toward Iran, he has demonstrated an unflappable determination to accommodate the terrorism supporting, nuclear proliferating, human rights repressing and empire building mullahs."
 
Find Jan's newest DVD on which U.S. Presidents have blessed or cursed Israel here. What are the consequences of cursing? How has our current President contributed to this? The DVD is just $15 and runs almost 60 minutes..
White House correspondent Bill Koenig, my frequent conference and radio guest writes in his e-newsletter, Koenig's Eye-View from the White House: "The more President Obama's actions affect or jeopardize Israel's security, the stronger the response will be from the God of Israel as evidenced in Scripture. This will have enormous implications for the United States."
 
Koenig writes, "The Obama administration keeps speaking about its unprecedented security cooperation with Israel, but what good is that if Iran gets nuclear weapons? What good is it if Iran deploys missiles in Syria and Lebanon, or Hamas takes over the Palestinian Authority, entrenches itself in the mountains of Judea and Samaria and brings in arms from Iran and Turkey? What good is it if Iran takes control of Yemen and the Red Sea?"
 
(Find info on subscribing to Koenig's e-newsletter here. It's well worth the nominal cost.)
 
Journalist Bill Wilson writes, "The U.S. government is trying to literally 'cut' Israel in half with its proposal of a Palestinian state. All that burden themselves with this issue may find themselves 'cut into pieces.'"
 
The White House has also suggested Israel shrink her borders to PRE-1967 borders. Call them suicide borders. They are not defensible. 
 
Bill Koenig states, "This is the White House that continues to leak information that puts Israel's security at risk, while speaking of its close co-operation with Israel. This is the White House that pressured the Pentagon to leak potential Israeli military actions against Iran to the press in 2012, 2013, and 2014. This is the White House that leaks news about Israeli air strikes inside Syria."
  
Koenig provides a complete timeline of Obama's anti-Israel hatred in his newsletter. He quotes Breitbart News suggesting President Obama finally called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to congratulate him on his re-election -- but the "congratulations" was actually a lecture directed at forcing Netanyahu to surrender to the terrorist Palestinian regime.  
 
Joel Rosenberg summarizes that we are watching Barack Obama:
  • Negotiate an incredibly dangerous nuclear deal with Iran.
  • Refuse to share the precise details of this deal with Israel, America's most faithful and trusted ally in the region.
  • Treat the Israeli Prime Minister nearly as persona non grata.
  • Send his political strategists and operatives to defeat the Prime Minister and his party in Israel's recent elections.
  • Threaten revenge because Netanyahu won re-election.
  • Threaten to abandon Israel at the U.N. and allow anti-Israel resolutions to pass without an American veto.
  • And now declassifies details of Israel's top secret nuclear program in what is being described as an unprecedented move.
Rosenberg concludes, "This is the most dangerous moment in the 67-year history of the U.S.-Israel relationship. What do the next two years hold? I cannot say for sure. I'm praying for the President and his top advisers to back off, turn from this dangerous path, and find common ground with Israel, despite policy and personality differences."
 
Iran is about to become a nuclear power player with the blessing of America and a few other blind-as-bats nations. That means many nations in the region will  have to pursue this goal as well. If you ever wondered what end-time references to fire, vapors of smoke, and the resulting strange signs in the heavens mean, I think it is obvious. At the time of the very end, nuclear war will be raging -- for sure in the Mideast. Maybe it will happen before the Rapture. The timing of all such events is uncertain. The Bible references appear to be Tribulation-based. 
 
Things are coming together. They are falling in place. Even if it seems they are falling apart, they really are not. Nations must have "distress with perplexity." (Luke 21:25.)  Can you think of a single nation that is not plagued with some kind of perplexity or plague? A dilemma for which the leaders have no solutions. 
  
Neither kings, generals, mullahs, ayatollahs, presidents, Fuhrers, or pharaohs can obliterate Israel. But the evil they perpetrate on God's covenant land can boomerang back on them and their empires.   
  
We have been warned. Scripture is clear. Mess with Israel and there are consequences.
