The House of Tomorrow (a poem by dlsiluk)

The House of Tomorrow

The House of Tomorrow, I know it well
I knew it long ago, long, long ago--
When I looked into my children’s eyes
And I knew sometime I’d have to let them go!
But I never knew the hurt and sorrow,
Within their rigged hearts, and minds
(that somehow, someway, someday
Somewhere along the way— would grow
Indifferent, greedy and shallow)
And that made all the difference—
Looking back, faded now, within my soul!
And I know life does not stop for me or them,
Nor it expect it to, and I did all I could do
(with what I had, back when),
Sad but true, sometimes we leave unhappiness
On paths that cannot be renewed. But
I bid them all farewell, God Speed!
And hope all is well, within their needs!
And if happiness is what they seek,
Remind them than please, it is not what they
Reek, for pleasure can make you weak!
For happiness, it is the opposite
Of what one receives?
(It is a result of what they give.)

Nightshade (poem)

Nightshade

In the stir-less night
Of nights that have no seams
Rooted in death
Down and around narrow spiral paths
They rattled like rattlesnakes
Buzzed like dozens of blundering flies
Monstrous thighs, shoulders and eyes
Like: snakes, owls, hawks wildcats
Half-demonic, with riveting jaws
With grotesqueness, they scratched and gnawed
In the doming shade of night,
Until the eve of sunlit, the eve of Armageddon
The Giants of the Circle of Refaim!

Refaim's Chilly Darkness

Refaim’s Chilly Darkness

Refaim’s chilly darkness reeks
Low into the plateau deep
One crimson golden heavenly star
Still lit, lights Refaim’s better night
Under a grayish moon they roam
Dispersed throughout this darkened gloom
Here, Giant, demon, renegade
Blind from Satan’s morning star
Old foes of long ago, call home
Damned by God! Their eternal souls
Now seek revenge, at Refaim.

The Earth Dethroned (poetic prose)


The Earth
Dethroned



The earth, like the people on it, are like a train, Sebastian, told himself as he was traveling from St. Paul, Minnesota, to Seattle, Washington, and it is going in one direction, he noticed, and they think all is smooth he conclude (and so was earth going in the same direction): “Yes,” he said, “they think all is going well,” then he murmured to himself: “The thing is, it is not so, it just seems so, because they, like me, can’t tell one way or the other, if they are moving on this train or not.” Further, he said, “There are only a few folks who look out the window, now and then, if there were more, they’d all know we are headed towards a blockade.
Now, the earth moves the opposite way (it was originally moving in the first place), and the train is still moving in the old same (from its previous unaltered state), but the push against the train is now felt from the opposing force, something is moving against it instead of with it, the train accelerates, to fight the force.
Sebastian now agrees with his second self, (that person inside of us we seem to talk to, but never acknowledge to anyone but ourselves, and we never give it, or him or her a name) and he hears (listens to) the man in the seat behind him say: “…we have two forces and two systems, in progress here, Lord in Heaven what can we do. Because of its iron mass, the train doesn’t feel the opposing force that much, nor the folks inside the train. Nonetheless, it is there.”
The conductor tells the people, “…it is just a matter of time, and we’ll be to our destination, don’t worry.”
Sebastian, is worried though, and seemingly, it appears the man behind him is worried, in that, perchance, the train will not stop in time, hit the blockade before it stops at its destination, the train station that being, rather hit the blockade just beyond it, the train is going too fast, fighting the forces around it.
Sebastian, He sees out the window a black ray of light, ghostly and haunting, it seems to stop and plant itself right then and there, as if his window was a hole in space for it to seep through, and then as the train moves on, it shows up on the other side, so he notices (the opposite side of the train that is) the other end. He tells himself at this point, “I’ve learned something because of this, perhaps man can bend fate, or stop it for a moment, and that there is a gap between this and that, a gravitational gap some folks might call it, he calls it “hope” he feels someone, or something, has to curve man’s mind, like light, and speed, and you will find peace.
“Is this possible?” he whispers.
In any case, he concludes there was a gravitational field, that deflected light, this was his big break to creating peace, a lasting world peace, his so called stepping stone to his new theory.
As he sat back down in his seat in his cubical, he had to rethink what he had figured out, what was all this dependent on, for it surely was dependent on something? “Oh yes,” says the man behind him, “one person was really and solely dependent on the other,” so they both now concluded. “Yes,” said Sebastian, “we are in essence, one entity, and without God, we would not exist, God being the glue.”
Then Sebastian got rethinking his rethinking:
“What went wrong that caused God to create the flood?” In a way a rhetorical question, because he was questioning himself. That is, a question he had to answer for himself, at best it would be conjecture.
“It was not the situation, which was the flood,” he murmurs out loud, the man behind him hears, “but the problem, it was the problem no one looked at, which is always under the surface of the situation. It was perhaps the folks back then lived longer, and thus could build trains that had the maximum velocity of light, the speed of light that is (figuratively speaking), which is the total momentum of anything in the universe. That they were moving so fast, faster than the second-hands on the moving clock, faster than time, for example, the clock decreased to a standstill, accordingly, one was increasing as the other decreasing, as a result, there appeared simultaneously, unmeasured sin.
Next, He assumed, God might have—whom feel knows all— evidently didn’t take this into consideration, or if he had, he deduced from his hypotheses, and reformulated a living system, family members and so forth, would fellow what he observed, so he gave mankind good examples to go by, social comparison—if you will, yet he did not see, nor witness that mankind had obtained identical behaviors, consequently, irrespective of those he sent to set an example, therefore, he had to shorten life, because they didn’t follow the good example, matter of fact, he even said (referring to mankind’s sinful heart), “I never even imagined this…” so now, he limited man to 120-years of life, not 960, as it had previously been. He even developed a new theory, to slow man down, because he was going at such a rapid velocity, or pace, from good to bad to hatred of his own kind, to evil, and beyond, he broke the magnetic phenomena, known as one language, into propagation, or spread man’s tongue out, to a thousand different languages, that accelerated around the world.
Then God said, so Sebastian, concluded, “The faster you go, the quicker you come, to Armageddon, or in the case of this train, to the blockade.”
He knew it could be postponed—just as the train might be able to be stopped at the transition, if indeed he could lower the speed (in God’s case, or humankinds, that amounted to sin) and that was his theory, that being, the Earth Dethroned from mankind, and given back to Christ, to the point of man repenting.

Israel: Happy Birthday (May, 2008)

Israel and I have one thing surely in common, I am 60, and so is Israel, sort of.
I also have a signed copy of the book “Israel a Personal History,” 1971, by David Ben-Gurion; one of 2000 copies printed, by “Funk & Wagnalls, Inc., New York. He was the granddaddy of all the leaders that would follow him to this day, so I believe. He was even born in the same month I was, October 16, 1886, I was born October 7, 1947, in Plonsk, Russian Poland, my grandfather was Russian, and grandmother Polish, and I was born an America. Perhaps he like I had a life time of studies; and I know he, like I traveled a lot, Mr. Ben-Gurion to most of Europe, and North and South America, as I have, also Africa. But his mission in life was different than mine, I am a simple poet, he was anything but simple, I think intentionally or unintentionally, he invoked into the New Jewish Nation, of the 40s and onward, a breathed of new life into its inhabitants, if not a presence of mission, and a spiritual rebirth.
He explains in his book, how Israel’s Ancient neighbors were Egypt and Babylon, and how they both had , surpassed Israel in population, wealth, and military power as well as territory. I got the impression he did not like the dilution and influences that came along with befriending his enemies, when the rest of the world had to endure to them also. He goes on to say everything has changed since then, and surely it has.
But what I liked most of all, was what he said, and I shall paraphrase it: No nation (in its 4000-year history) was able to assimilate the Jewish nation into their culture for all their richness. Giving an example of the Greeks and Persians (and if I may add, even the Inca of Peru), absorbed so many other cultures into theirs. He adds in his narration, Christianity was its most difficult threat to deal with, and I am a Christian, not a Jew—he says it like this ‘Christianity …was a threat to Jewish survival…’ and I guess I never thought of it that way, and perhaps it was, but I do not even think God wanted Jews to be Christians, only for the Jews to acknowledge their mission, and in my eyes, they missed the target, and tried to hide God from everyone else, and when Christians found him, well, jealousy can be a hard apple to swallow.
Anyhow, Christianity did not rob Judaism, and I think Mr. Gurion would be proud of many of the accomplishments Israel has achieved; alas, there are also a few he would most likely say “That is not want I figured on”; but happy birthday, Israel—you deserve it at 60.

Who Needs’ God? (poetic prose)



God doesn’t care if you believe he exists, he doesn’t need to, never has had to, and even if he didn’t exist, you would hope he did. On the other hand, why do you think he needs to impress you with saying here I am? Your mind has said he is, and thus he does.
You possess him, because you need him, not he you. He has given you the pleasures of being one of his many creations, and he happened to put you on earth, through a process of delivery; we have of course made a decision along this course of his action, to survive, and maintain a line of existence within our race, or species.
Repugnant as we may be to him, and we surely are, he puts up with us, either for a laugh, or to shake his head at 90% of us and say: “Unbelievable” (and in shock continues to watch in astonishment at our behavior).
Furthermore, sadly enough, we want to own everything, even though we will leave this earth with nothing, as we came, so God must be saying I’m sure, “What good is ownership, at such a price?” For often times we dearly for it; I am sure again this comes under ‘Astonishment of our behavior!”
Looking down the threshold of existence, love comes to mind, love being from love, greed from greed, all belonging to its own circle, and death I suppose is the same, why would the semantics change, meaning: the assassin will be with his kind, this is a God preserved right to place the same kind of bricks on top of one another—just like our balanced universe; each unto his own. That is to say, ‘no good comes out of bad,’ thus in time, separate them if not for the sake of penitence, for the sake contamination.
Therefore, the privileges’ of being God, are many: he creates the shadow, and it is gray, perhaps elsewhere it is green, God put immense depths of thought into his overall creation for man, and somewhere along the line, he put in a capsule called, extinction, to reminded us, what is possible, or what might be possible, that we owe some kind responsibility for being put on earth’s surface.
There was a time, in earth’s archeological strata, where the human race came close to extinction, only 2000-humans left. But somehow we managed to survive through that period of time (70,000 BC).
So God says: “Believe what you will “for upon your death that is what you take with you” (but on our deathbed this is not what we want to take with us, we want assurance we will go to heaven; I mean, let bygones be bygones here on earth). But the fact is, you were no good on earth, and what makes you think you’ll be any better in heaven? But we think like that don’t we. We are all going to heaven, right—wrong!! (That is like saying we are all going to be president, or Elvis, or something on that grid line.) You will be who you are when you die, God knows this, and so do you.
And then he gives you and ounce of faith, if you take it, it is best you do not lose it; you may not find it again.
On another point, God gives us love, the thing we all try to figure out by dissecting its inner core, or better put, as if it is a dead corpse, we try surgically to take it out in an operation and check it for its true nature. And what we do in the process is create torture, the very thing we create in its place, we call love, and this is what we give to our loved ones. We’re a silly species, are we not!

Rewards in Islamic Heaven

Rewards in Islamic Heaven

I didn’t understand what Adolf Hitler meant by saying, “You can fool the masses more easily, than the few.” I came to an understanding of it, when I was introduced to Islam though. I was told if I followed the path of Islam, and its clergy, its spokesmen, I would have rewards in heaven. It kind of sounded like Christianity to me, until I understood what the rewards were. If I get killed in a mission, while trying to kill Islam’s enemies, I would go to heaven, and have wine and girls. I mean they will be naked and waiting for me at the gates—this was the impression I got. This kind of sounded like the Playboy Plaza, but in heaven? It was something to look deeper into, so I asked a student of Islam: you mean God has hired whores to meet me at the gates of heaven and take my pants down, and we do it? Well he said: “It is not quite like that.” Then I stated: “It must be that God created some dumb girls if this is the case, or he constructed some machines, for his martyrs.”
My Saudi Arabian friend looked at me again, said “You still just do not get it.”
“Get what?” I asked.
He didn’t say anything, then I asked a simple question, “If this is a truth, why then do so many Islamic Arabs before they go on their missions get drunk, and find a whore to lay with? I mean, if they are going to have both them items (alcohol and women), shortly after they give their lives up for the cause?”
He said, “You are making fun of my religion!”
I said, “No I am not, I am although interested in the concept of rewards in such a manner, that it almost sounds like something someone made up to get someone else to give up his life, for earth pleasures in the heavenly realm. It just doesn’t make sense.
“Who are these women?” I then asked, adding “I mean, are they someone else’s wife, or angels having orgies with the souls of men, when they return from Battle Ground Earth: my guess is, this is Satan’s plan, not God’s, not the Almighty’s plan, it is to vulgar plan, and only one someone like Satan would come up with. It is really as dump if not, silly path to follow. I mean, if God wanted you dead, why does he have to have his followers do it, he can simply move his little finger and goodbye to us all!” (On the other hand I knew, Satan worked through the physical, him being spirit, he needs flesh and blood to do his actions.)
Now I do not know what sects in Islam believe this, but my friend believed it, and he was from Saudi Arabia. Perhaps this is the wishful thinking of the male division in the religion—it almost sounds like penis envy.

Capital Punishment: Right or Wrong?


Capital Punishment: Right or Wrong?

We all have opinions and views, so I am not looking for a fight with my readers on this controversial subject, I have just not said much on it ever in my writings in the past, of over 5000-poems, articles, books, short stories, and so forth, and why I ask myself, have l left out Capital Punishment? The best reasoning I came up with was: I never got around to it, I always had my beliefs, opinions, thoughts on the subject: so right or wrong, here area a few. Most of my view comes from my Graduate Studies at Liberty University, in Old Testament Studies (and perhaps, being in the Army for 11-years also framed my thoughts on the subject):

“Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made he man.” (KJV Genesis 9:6) Yes, I got to get a little biblical about it as I said I would, because God plays a heavy part in my life, beliefs, and direction. So you got my answer to Capital Punishment quick. But let me explain, there is more to it. Scripture is one thing and ethical decisions are another, but closely interwoven for me. I was, and you were, created in God’s image, believe it or not, it is written (Lev. 17 and Exod. 20). I am also ruling out murder, for it is not biblically grounded. I also must say, God and mankind do not have what I’d say is an understanding, or His permission to do so, but to do harm to man, is to do harm to the image God created in every human. In the old days, if an animal was to kill a man, the animal was destroyed by stoning, and the flesh of the animal was not eaten.
We should remember all life is God’s creation.
There should be a respect for the godly ground all creatures live on; thus, life given is by a supernatural power. So we are prohibited from shedding blood of man, Before the Great Flood, and after it, we never lost the divine image, and yes we do stand out in distinction form, from the animals, and vegetable worlds. God did not impose the death penalty on Cain, he gave him mercy of course for murderer (and I’ll explain that later). I do not find a clear cut pattern of law in the Bible to deal with murder in particular—we have concern, but not procedure in the Bible. The Mosaic Law restricts the right of blood vengeance.
In the book of Deuteronomy Chapter 21, we see murder endangers the whole community, and puts it at risk. It seems to me, that only the blood of the individual murderer (stranger) could make atonement for such pollution in a village, and so execution was accepted for his crime, but if it was a kin, like Cain to Abel, it was not permitted. (Deut. 24).
I do realize the 6th commandment says “Thou shalt not kill” (Exod. 20)—this really indicates murder, not the authorized taking of human life of the murderer.
In the old days, when the Old Testament was being written, sixteen offences could get you stoned to death. Of course, we are more civilized are we not, than those old times way back when, we just have wars, and protect the murderers on our city streets. Anyhow, the death penalty was also for adultery, incest and such things also.
We of course are not living in a divine theocracy (or government by religion) now. So that is often times taken into consideration by societies.
In essence, and to make this article shorter, I must simply say, the Old Testament emphasis punishment based on matching the seriousness of the crime, or offense; such as, a serious injury would equal a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot, a burn for a burn (Exod. 21). On the other hand, I do not believe the Old Testament teaches that Capital Punishment is the solution for every murderer, nor mandatory. Discretion should be used. When they hung Saddam Hussein, I felt he had it coming, there were hundreds of eyewitnesses to his evilness, and murderous mind, and rulership. But I do not think one should kill a thief if over taken in the act.

Dictators: a Way of Thinking

Dictators: a Way of Thinking

The president of Zimbabwe thinks a certain way, a way the west does not understand, for it will allow its people to suffer and get raped, and so forth. Hamas, has a different way of thinking that the rest of the world does not understand, it also will allow its people to die and parish for its end goals. The North Korean president has a way of thinking, the world does not understand likewise, and will allow his people to starve to death, but wants nuclear arms (but they will take a handout if you offer it, so they can feed their soldiers); they will find money for that arms. President of Venezuela uses his countries oil to slowly gain a grip here and there, not really caring about his people, because he gives most of their resources away to gain control of leaders in other countries, but he does not step beyond a limit, one he made for himself, and perhaps because he knows the United States is too close to home. Burma is in the same status as all of the above, run by an assortment of generals, hiding in the background so no one can finger who is who, and who is responsible for their chains. Al Qaeda has a special way of thinking also, anyone not under their heel, is the enemy, and therefore has a license to kill them.
What I am driving at is this: all of the above have a different way of thinking than Americans, or Europeans, for the most part. We can add Australia into this category, or most English speaking countries, also Canada. What is inside of these dictators’ heads that they do not care? Haiti is another example of one of the so called new democratic dictatorships (Russia and China have formed a thin form of capitalism, and a thinner form of Democracy for Russia, and Cuba, is trying to form one now—more in name than truth and reality).
Again, I have to say, what is it makes people like these (excluding: fame, jealousy, envy, power and control), and we can add Saddam Hessian, into this rule, and Hitler from the past and Stalin. It is a certain way of thinking, and America has never grasped it.

It is really an old way of thinking. The new way is for the people by the people—a Christian way of thinking and its origins go back to Adam and Eve. Cain, when he left the Garden of Eden for killing his brother, was a bad seed, but could have repented, and he knew this, and he was going into the old world, and he knew in this old order the folks did not have much heart for anything beyond self interests, it was part of the old soul, or had became part of it, for Satan was in that part of the world, and ruled it long before the Garden was created.
It is that God’s breath was blown into Adam’s mouth, and thus he became the new creature, his soul was automatically different than those outside the Garden of Eden—God never blew life into those older souls, he never said he did, and he didn’t, there is a difference, a soul of God, or by God (and Satan had done his homework long ago, by grabbing God out of them old souls). It had to be, because the way of thinking outside the Garden was as it is with those folks we are talking about now, whom we do not understand why they do what they do; the soul of these folks are sick and do you expect something healthy from something sick? No way.
So when we deal with these folks, we need to keep this in mind, they do not care if a hundred, or a thousand, or a million have people have to die for their cause, it is the end they are looking at, not you.

Islam Unknown


When I read the New Testament Bible, I know it has a good history, I mean, a good reliable history. Let me explain, many people have a testimony as to its reliability, even a powerful legal proof follows it. I perhaps am a Doubting Thomas, God knows this, and it is not the unpardonable sin—thank goodness, but I suppose it shows a lack of faith, which I’ve prayed for, for 50-years to build on, still I am a Doubting Thomas. Anyhow, this is me, and I believe the New Testament has endured the test of time in addition to its legal testimonies. When I studied at the seminary for several months in the 1980s, I looked deep into the research around the Old and New Testaments, it was one of the major reasons I went to Liberty University, and did perhaps half of my graduate studies there, prior to this I had studied psychology for four years. But doing this research, it created for me evidence, strict legal evidence, and a reliable history. I just do not want to believe simply to believe in something without substance.
There is a long stream of intellectuals who can bear witness to the New Testament, such as Saul of Tarsus, Augustine, George Lyttleton, C.S. Lewis, Sir William Ramsey, and on and on we go. These folks were converted on its legal history, not forced fed it and then ordained a Christian—they looked at it as I did, as a lawyer would, expertly trained in the matter of evaluating the evidence at hand.
Now you are perhaps saying “What does this all have to do with Islam?” I will tell you: everything (perhaps you can also put Mormonism and the Jehovah Witnesses in this category also, which are off the mainstream of the New Testament Bible, whom have even changed the New Testament to accommodate their religious cults, and I say cult, meaning it is a religious faction, shoot off from Christianity, as Islam is a faction from Judaism and Christianity).
But what I am trying to get to is this: throughout history, even to include Harvard Law School Simon Greenleaf, demonstrated the reliability of the gospels, Lord Chancellor Hailsham a lawyer in England, also was also convinced of the NT authority and reliability, where is the reliability of the Koran? The Islamic holy book?
I’ll try to put this in a nutshell, there are many errors and biblical distortions in the Koran, and most folks will agree with this if they study the both books, and we will also agree I think, God does not inspire error in His Word? Even the Muslims I think would agree there are many errors, unless they are uneducated in their own holy book. Dr. Robert Morey has shown 100 examples of such errors. One in particular, in Sura 11:44, where the Ark of Noah came to rest on the top of Mt. Judi, now we all know it was on Mt. Ararat, as the bible indicates. And it says Abraham’s father was Azar (Sura 6:74), not Terah as the Bible teaches, and that the sacrifice was to be Ishmael (Sura 37: 100-112), not Isaac, as the Bible says. And I could go on and on and on, such as with Mary, the mother of Jesus, Noah’s flood, Mary’s father’s name is incorrect; they have also incorrectly compared the Book of Genesis wrongly I say in the Koran—along with many more biblical characters. So what is one to believe? I was befriend by a man many years ago, from Saudi Arabia, and we went to the Saudi Arabia club in St. Paul, Minnesota, by Hamlin University in which he was attending, and I had put my application for graduate studies in there waiting for admission, in which he and I compared by reading each other’s books, and made comparisons. Sadly but true, he did not want to believe what he saw and read, said it was American propaganda—yes indeed, right in the Bible. We even went to his set of Encyclopedias to gather information on Mohammad’s life, and again he said, it was distorted by American propaganda—being American Encyclopedias, thus, what can you say to a man so stubborn? I hope if you are Muslim, you are not as stubborn as he—more open minded, check it out. Don’t believe just because you were raised to believe. I went to many Christian churches before I chose to be who I am. Not ever Christian Church teaches the correct Christian doctrine, so I discovered. And so many people are lead by the blind, because they are blind.

The Potential Dangerous Side of Islam



None of us really want to talk about this subject, the potential dangerous of Islam, we’d rather hide our heads under a pillow, scared Islam may condemn us or something, and not sure what else. Islam has done a great fear job on the world; exactly what they’ve wanted to do, but let’s look at why it is dangerous (I wrote a book on Islam a few years ago ‘Islam, in Search of Satan’s Rib’ sorry I did not add this article into it, but I hadn’t wrote it then).
This is not slander, this is simple facts, so please don’t throw the black skull flag up before you read it. This whole article will be done simple and in brief, but you will be about to extract a lot of information from it.
As I have already said, Islam can, and has influenced dramatically the world, its economy through OPEC. It has a billion followers, thus is an important reason to look close at this growing religious influence, it is also having an in pact on nations outside its Islamic boundaries. And because of it oil and massive following it can play and does play a key role in the social stability, or instability of governments, and it does both—in war, and less in peace. But the most dangerous element I see is its code, its premise, to bring Islamic law to every nation (and within this structure, almost anything goes if it is blessed by the elders: so I call the ruling parties).

So we see so far, Islam has the power to change the present world, and it is, and has, and will: increasing daily. Only a few nations in the world are willing to speak up on this matter, and one is not the USA. So we see this fast growing religion in the world taking root, dominating more than 40-countries now, and silencing double that amount from criticizing them. All other religions are allowed to be looked at and criticized, but Islam, why is that? What are they afraid of?
It is a dominating force in the Middle East, Africa and Asia. It now is the second largest religion in Europe, and the third in the USA. And in England, it is number three, and soon to be two, and then one. In 1974, France had one mosque, to my understanding, there are over 2000-today (and perhaps that is a conservative figure).
In the Midwest in the USA, all the way to Los Angeles there are uncountable Muslims. In 1991, there were about 1000-mosques and Islamic centers in the US, perhaps double that now. Don’t get me wrong, this is neither good nor bad, it is just fact; and the other fact is that a Christian Nation is turning Islamic, pure and simple. The problem is, with this increase, the ideological influence goes with it, and Islamic fundamentalism increases, the aggressive kind, and let’s not hide from the fact, there is such a creature. And what becomes changed, if not infected is: the social, political, economical, and military elements in a nation.
If you are Christian, do not think this to be of little concern, Islamic-domination, there is normally a progression with this kind of revealed pattern, that being, persecution of Christians, which is happening and has in the near-past, severe persecution of Christians in Islamic states.
South America, predominantly, Christian is also becoming inundated with this religion.

So what beliefs are we looking at? 1) Faith in Allah (and who is Allah? A good question, sometimes it seems to be the elders, and I can’t figure who works for whom 2) Angels, yes Muslims believe in angels, especially Gabriel, who translated the Koran for or to Muhammad, so it is claimed, I wonder what Gabriel would say if I could talk to him personally? I know he wouldn’t agree, because Micha’el told me 3) The Holy Books include the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, but only to a degree, thus, the Koran supersedes everything else. 4) The prophets, about 25-are mentioned in the Koran, such as Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, and so forth, but of course the revelations of Muhammad’s predominate.
Muslims believe in predestination. Meaning, it is all done for a purpose, and perhaps on purpose, the good and the evil.
Day of Judgment: on this day, Muslims believe their deeds will be put on a scale, and weighed, and Allah will judge which way you go, up or down. I hate to think which way for Bin Laden (unless it is Allah’s will for his aggressive behavior to continue unabated).

(Islam says:) During judgment, a person's own "book of deeds" will be given to the person, and they will be apprised of every action they did and every word they spoke (Qur'an 54.52-53). If given in the right, that Person will go to Jannah (paradise). If he gets it in his left, he's going to Jahannam (Hell). The Qur'an states that some sins can condemn someone to hell. These include lying, dishonesty, and corruption, ignoring God or God's revelations, denying the resurrection, refusing to feed the poor, indulging in opulence and ostentation, and oppressing or economically exploiting others.[12] However, if someone had the true Islamic belief in their heart, then they will eventually be allowed into paradise after their just punishment.

God's Answer

God’s Answer

(God’s Answer) Michael was by me, I said silently in my brain, “…how does one know what religion to seek, when there are so many cults, like the Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, and Islam?’ And I looked up towards heaven, asked God that question, and his reply was (and I think it was to me, but could have been through Micha’el, it seemed he knew what I had asked anyhow): “Search for me with all your heart and soul, not religion, go after my heart, you will find me, and I will put you into my palm, and no one will ever harm you….” (Yes, I was a man after God’s own heart, and this sounded reasonable, it should be God we seek, not religion per se.) This answer came as quick as a click of my fingers. Thus, I knew it came from him, once you find God, all else will fall in line.

The Sin that is not Pardonable!

The Sin that is not pardonable!

When one says, Satan’s works are done by the Holy Spirit, as the scribes did infer onto Christ, in the days Jesus walked the earth, by saying “…He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils he casteth out devils.” (Mark: Ch. 3) And when they know better, for they saw his miracles, thus, denying who Christ was, and why he came, such scribes committed the Unpardonable sin, and given over to a degenerate mind and do not desire salvation, nor will the Holy Spirit lead them to it (Romans 1:28).
As Christ had said, “How can Satan cast out Satan?” At that time Christ went on to say: “A house divided cannot stand” and “I can bind Satan, I can go into his house, but he cannot go into mine, nor bind me.”
What he was trying to tell the scribes was: what you are witnessing is a person stronger than Satan, and regardless of what you see, giving Satan credit for it.
The Godhead, three in one, the Father made the world, and sees to it, as a caretaker you might say; Jesus, came down from heaven (part of he Godhead) and ransomed himself for the sins of mankind, his blood wipes our sins away (see: Isaiah 1:18/ Mark Ch. 3/1st John 1:7).
“…though your sins be like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.” And “All sins shall be forgiven…but he that blaspheme against the Holy Spirit…” “…and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleans us from all sin…"
The Holy Spirit is different than the Father and Christ, He is the counselor, the soft spoken one, he responds to our desires, wishes, fears, and the reception and rejection of men to his calling. He never requires, like God the Father or God the Son, may do at times, and impose their wills.
(I was a licensed counselor for many years, thus I would plead the case of my clients to others, I was the intercessor you could say, I was the only one really that had the right to do this, while working in the clinics when clients were assigned to me. This is something like the Holy Spirit does, but the Holy Spirit is sensitive to rejection, but to get to Christ, and to approach God, the Holy Spirit is the one avenue you have to take. So to deliberately confuse God with Satan is unpardonable. So blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is rejection of the light he brings you, and you identify it as Satan not God, and knowing what you are doing at the time.)
It might be prudent to add, those who have in the past were blasphemers, and knew not what they were doing (out of ignorance) can still be saved (Timothy Ch. 1); we are not talking about these folks.

The New and Old Souls (to the Lands of Dead Souls)

The New and Old Souls
(To the Lands of the Dead Souls)
((DNA and the Genetic Code, Genesis) (like Dead Wheat))



And Micha’el quoted from the Book of John, and Mathew; for I had asked: “…what were the answers to the soul of Adam and those before him…,” and Micha’el quoted the New Testament, saying:

John 3:12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?

(Micha’el was looking for me to give him an answer!)

Mt 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto the simple, and unto babes.

Mt 16:3 O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

And I said to Micha’el:
“I have never turned face on listening and looking at what my mind does not understand, for those are the things I find most simple, once told me, perhaps because I am not all scientist, nor all philosophy, plus I am a simple man, and God has given these things to such people like me.”
And Micha’el looked deep into my eyes, and then told Moun’el to explain (for I could not understand the difference between Adam, and those before him, what makes one different than the other?)

Moun’el Explains:

“God gave all living things life, but he did not breath into their nostrils as he did Adam, he gave them a living force only, connected to the cosmos (a spiritual force, one that can read and communicate in its own language), you call it DNA. This Genetic Code has a simple language of 26-letters; it is in all living life, animal, plant and human. Like all languages, it communicates; this code is formed in a honeycomb pattern, incased in cells, and these cells contain the essence of life. Each cell although primitive, is complex, these cells perceive (or recognize, see, take in) cosmic forces, no human knows why, yet the forces in life are inside the cell, cosmic in nature, not of earth, these forces you cannot see, because they are spiritual, these make up the DNA, and Genetic Code.
The breathe of God, his essence, life that produces a soul, an immortal soul, the one he gave Adam, that made the biggest difference, to the observer called Satan, now there was a part of God himself in man, before this time, they were dead souls in comparison—the difference being, souls of God or by God—now when death came upon man, those who came from Adam, were souls that were of God.
Before Adam: souls were created differently, and those whom were of the earth before Adam, were subject to their king, Lucifer, and they were of a different breed, like animalia souls almost, that died and forever were silent, and there were souls that took Lucifer’s side but he could only offer them his character, and so they took that upon themselves, when they died, they became his servants, some demonic, some remain silent in their graves, many are in the prison, others in hell, but a few made it to paradise.
The souls before Adam, were like dead wheat, and the old way of dying was put to death, for nothing was being born that was good, that could grow, and the old ways could not die, and God saw this and he needed to give new life, so it would grow, and so man unknowingly discovered a new way of dying—and living again, he had gotten a new soul—Adam was the hand picked first person, put into a garden and kept away from the dead wheat, and good came out of this. But in time, because of the forbidden fruit being eaten, and because of the son’s of Adam one king his brother and cast out to fend for himself among the ones before Adam, the growing wheat would be mixed with the old and dying.
But the old ones did not want to die, and let the new ones live, it is that survival instinct you know, but to those of the old ways, God was not born fresh inside of them. Oh, they knew of him, tried to make new gods to forget him. And this is how I recall it.”
And I knew from this vantage point, all the great prophets were linked to Adam, Abraham, Moses, David, Christ; and so the linage goes to this very day.

I asked, what civilization can he tell me about, that lived back in those far off days, that were ruled by the old wheat like souls: and he told me in a flash of a second, I called this story “The Great Tower of Kura,” when he told it, it was as if he was using a parable (please see Appendix for the story).

The Cadaverous Journey (To the Dead and Dying)

Preliminary Part of the Journey (Notes and Dream)
In the Heavens (cosmos)

It was the middle of the night, I awoke, and there was a great figure, five of them at the end of my bed, and one said, "You must come with me, but first you must die, and I will bring you back to life." Oh, but I thought this was all a dream, so I said "Ok," and somehow I died, it was like a second dream, that is, a dream within a dream you might say, and perhaps I really did die, I don't know, I never died before, but after the experience is seemed a simple matter of waking up, and I did, but into another dream you might say, a journey, and so I don't know what to tell you, but here I s. I suppose it is a matter of if you (in this case me) wake up for the dream, you have died in, and of course I am writing this, so I did. And so this story you are about to read, is just that, a journey from my book of the dead, by the dying. I will try to write it as true as it can be.
Let me add, in the 1980s, I wrote a book called "The Last Trumpet and the Woodbridge Demon," out of fiftey-visions I had concerning future times. The visions came in a seven month period, and I wrote them down, and tried to explain them, for all up to this date have come true. I will not this time, try to explain anything, it is two exhausting, and I am twenty-five years older.
The Angels
There were five angels that appeared, and I shall name them, according to how I understood their names to be, and to the correct spelling I think it might be 1) Micha'el (everyone likes him) 2) Ura'el (another archangel) 3) Uri'el (not sure what his status is, but he is a messenger nonetheless 4) Rufael and Raguel. (My aunt, once told my mother, "Why does Dennis get all the visions," I being at the time, the worse of sinners, and then trying, or in search of God's heart. Who can have such an answer, so I said nothing, as I shall say nothing this time), and Surr'el (my guardian Angel was there, but more in spirit than presence, his voice his images).
(Raguel) As we started my journey, and Raguel said to me, "Heaven burns, look in the direction of the west," and I saw a huge aluminous fire, that seemed to have no rest.
(Ura'el) "I will take you soon to the 'Prison House of Angles,' said Ura'el, "where on is detained forever." And I looked his way, said not a word.
((Rufael) (Inside the Mountain, for the Souls of the Dead)) Inside this great huge mountain, perhaps one fifth the size of our moon, we stood in the middle of it, it was deep, high inside, smooth, dark, yet I could see all, and everything, Rufael was to my right side, pointed to all four corners, at once, explained "The spirits of he dead are assembled in here, gathered here," he repeated himself, "for the day, the of the Great Judgment." And I could hear the echoes of many voices, as if they were trying to reach heaven, from all four sections, corners of the inner mountain.
I asked, "Please explain more clearly the reasoning for this?"
"For the sinners," he said, adding, "upon death. Judgment, the Great Judgment, is not executed immediately for their lifetime of sinfulness (I realized I had once read there was 72-deaths, thus perhaps judgments were based on this but I didn't ask, and he did imply death at this point, not life); then he went on to say, "...sinners and criminals will remain, here with their kind, and those who go well with, the judgment (s), yet are of the non-righteous, remain in the other corners, these souls will not be killed on the day of judgment, but shall not rise to heaven either; those who admit their destruction, and were killed in the process by others before their time perhaps, a make dispute."
(Notes: I wondered at this point, if I could wake myself up from this dream, I have in the past, but I couldn't, I was like in a bubble, and my second thought, would I remember all this, and Micha'el nodded his, 'yes'.)
(Uri'el) Uri'el pointed now at the "Prison House of Angels," seven stars were bound together, as if in a cluster, how far I was from it I don't know, but it was perhaps likened to our satellites orbiting the earth, however close that might be. The stars looked more like mountains carved into pyramids like figures, burning wildly, and Uri'el spoke: "This is the place mentioned before, the 'Prison House for Angels,' those that have sinned, went against the commandments of the Lord, and here they remain for ten-million years, according to their number of sins."
The Great Canyon of Pain
Satan after his demise
(Uri'el) Then we came to a great fire, a canyon of sorts, that extended from sea to sea, and great rods of fire forced it way to and fro, burning with flames consuming all, it poured like lava and Uri'el said, "Here is the canyon of Pain." And I was scared, freighted it might reach us, but it didn't (Note: I told myself, this is a dream, how can this heat reach me, yet I felt it, but it did not burn, and turn to pain, and I caught my breath, I wasn't exactly sure at this point were we were).
Said Uri'el, now looking at me, face to face, shoulder to shoulder: "We are in the Prison House of Angels, whom will be detained here without end!"
(Angelic Renegades) We then came upon the images of angels, their spirits; these were the ones of old, the Old Ones, as foretold in ancient literature, so I knew immediately. Those who were allied the Watchers, and slept with women, cohabitated, and taught man to sacrifice to demons (and I was told within my mind's eye, the women that were persuaded, they have been cursed, thus, will have a peaceful death and afterlife.) And I said, "I don't quite understand." And Uri'el said in plain words, "Heaven is heaven, as is blood and flesh which must die and perish, blood and flesh, and when one has abandoned heaven, and its ways, and seep with women, defile themselves, can not possess eternal life, and they begotten children, giants of old, deformed, these are evil spirits, that have come out of their bodies, for they were at once created by the holy ones, the watchers, their first origin, spiritual foundation. Thus they will walk the earth, and be called such, for if you are born upon the earth, you remain, they eat no food, nor thirst, and they shall challenge the people of the earth until the last days, when comes the slaughter and destruction."
And I saw many faces, and asked, "Who were they?"
And before me came the faces of Azaz'el (condemned for teaching corruptness.
And Micha'el brought forth Semyaz who fornicated with the women, and said,
"He has died together with them, and sleeps in their defilement."
(Notes: and I thought in my head, and Micha'el made it clear, souls of pleasure, were the children of the Watchers, and this sin of injustice has to do with, heaven is in itself the reward of pleasure or immediately gratification, and sexual intercourse on earth was mans pleasure, and holly angels could not mix these.)
(Judgment of the Watchers: Micha'el) And the son of Lamech was brought before me, as an image, and his history was, of the same, a Watcher before the Great Deluge, flood in the time of Noah, and he hid from God, but was destroyed. And Azaz'el was bound and thrown into darkness, and Duda'el was buried under sharp rocks, unmovable-and I learned in those far off days came many judgments unto the Watchers.
(Teaching of the Arts) Amastras' taught incantations, and the cutting of roots; Baraqiyal taught astrology with Tam'el, and Asder'el taught the course of the moon, and Azaz'el taught how to make swords and knives, shields.
The Blessed Tree
Then I came upon several beautiful mountains, and they appeared to be carved in the shape of a throne, surrounded by fragrant trees, and I was shaking my head, as if to get out of this dream, almost fearful, but it was a wondrous sight, and fragrance, and all those huge beings bowed, and I flowed suite (I matched what they did); and there were followers everywhere, and the tree that caught my eyes the most was a beautiful tree and very fruitful, and it looked like a palm tree, and I just gazed at it, and Micha'el appeared (seemingly the chief of he group) smiled and said (for he had left but a moment, how long the moment was I don't know, but it seemed to me he perhaps went to get permission, or at least that is how I saw it at the time, with my earthly thinking), said Micha'el:
"The mountains are God's throne, where resides he Eternal King (Christ), and he is the one whom has visited the earth. The tree cannot be touched until after the judgment, the conclusion period, and close the books once and for all (only the righteous and pious he old me would be able to touch it); at this time he also told me the fragrance will penetrate one's bones.
(Jerusalem) Then we flew over a city, it was Jerusalem, the old city of Salem, of which the high king, Melchizedik once brought bread and wine to Abram. Here under a mountain I saw a holy stream, it was flowing, then another mountain and a valley, here ran the stream towards the west, then a smaller mountain appeared and another valley, dry and deep, with hard rocks and no trees, and it was all such a marvel.
Notes (and Interlude #2):
First Origins
(Notes: during this process of watching and seeing, and asking questions, I had a moment of time to seriously think of what is called "First Origins," and related it back to my studies in Philosophy, Psychology and Theology. I guess what I saw is modern natural philosophers look at the nature of reality, not qualified scientists by far, so they express themselves, as often I do in poetry, or on the metaphysical schemes of life. So was evolution involved in creation. Well, the cosmos are changeless, and all things are changing, and this journey helped me come to this understanding, and everything is meaningful and purposeful, so I feel, thus, there is a great chain of being, or life forms involved here. So I'd like to think, or substitute evolution for creation since scientists are limited, to only studying occurring objects and events in the present environment. I add this in here because Plato, or Aristotle contributed philosophy and nothing for the laboratory, and scientist I think will back me up, the Biblical criteria for God's created universe is better than it happened human philosophy. )
Who were the Renegades?
(Also, before I go on with my dream journey, I'd like to address one other thing quickly, the Angelic Renegades: did they exist? In my Old Testament studies, at Liberty University in the 1980s, working on my Masters Degree, this was a most interesting subject. In spite of the complexity and vagueness, I concluded, at least for myself, the issue solved. In the Old Testament, they were called "Sons of God," perhaps a tinge of a mythological sound to that, if not supernatural, but they were historical descendents of somebody, or they could be the daughters of men, also used. But it was plane to many in the fist century AD, after Christ what it meant. Even some theories say they were marriages between Cro-Magnon men and Neanderthal women, most unlikely. I see a clear line between divine beings and humans. History as recorded Gilgamesh, to be two thirds supernatural (or demonic) and one third human, as was Saint Christopher. So I do not find supernaturalism so far fetched. The Jewish and Christian writers have interpreted these beings to be also supernatural, educated men, with lots of PhD's We should not look at this as mythology, but theology.
I have looked at two manuscripts, especially the Alexandrinus Codex (forth Century A.D.) And have written about them in poetic form in a few of my books, and the Septuagint, all confirming these were angels of God. But the most confirming piece of evidence I found was the Great historian Flavius Josephus, whom was Jewish, but worked with the Romans, to the dismay of his Jewish counterparts, along with all the church fathers of those far off days. It was not until the 5th century this theory was abandoned of the supernatural interpretation of Genesis.
The Journey and Dream Continued
(The Latter Days) After we had left Jerusalem, I was taken on a trip that seemed to me to go from one end of the world to the other, and I saw many gates from the heavens open up and down came rain, and snow, and hail, and down came frost and mighty winds, and I saw violence and sorrow upon the earth, during this time. And then we changed directions, and we went instead of north, we went west, and I saw in time in the east, more destruction. And to the south, and again the winds and extreme weather conditions prevailed.
(Note: in 1998 and 2000, I had some dream-visions, I documented them, but not like I did in the 1980s, and made a book out of it, but what I say was the false prophet, and what I heard was the world would be under satanic influence, it was a two part vision: the message was: 'The Beast, his army the antichrist, terrorism and war,' this was before I believe Bin Laden was the number one criminal in the world. You need not believe me it is just something I found after eight years of this book sitting, and I read inside the book what I wrote, and put it in here. It is nothing we do not know; it just confirms with me, I'm on the right track. Actually right after I had those two visions, I wrote the outline of the book "The Manticore..." it was not properly edited at the time, and sorrow to say, it didn't sell well, but it was the bases for the plot. I figured out the Secret of the Beast during these latter days, it being 'even if you win, you lose, for there is more than plan, and maybe he wants to lose.)
But on this journey, all these things came to mind, and that Christ had told his followers above all, let no man deceive you. And as I looked down upon the earth, I saw many God-pretenders, for now there are many Christ pretending cults, such as the Mormons, and Jehovah Witnesses, in both cases I attended their services, and studies, and to include Armstrongism. There were on earth I saw them, many Jesus movements. I realized, since the time of Daniel and Nebuchadnezzar, these have been the times of the gentiles, for the most part. As we sailed across the a atmosphere I knew I really did not have to worry, I mean the destiny of the breast (the Army of Satan) and false prophet has already been determined, it is just a matter of how many will join him, in this millennium.
(End) It was hard at times to behold the faces of the angels, they were so holy and righteous, henceforth, I did, and then as I was about to say something, a whirlwind grabbed me, and I descended to earth, it carried me back to my bed, and into life I woke up.
†
The Ancestor before Time
Those who were sick in their hearts (during the latter days) made dwelling places for the elect ones, those chosen by Satan; surrounded by his ten-wings, created before time; Lord of the Air, and to his followers he demanded to be worship; I saw him in a 1980s vision: pacing like the Tiamat, among the clouds.
#2326 (8-15-2008)
The Angels Never Came Back (In the Latter Days)
A ´poem
Imprudence could be found at all corners of the earth During the latter days; no place for holy angels to rest For wisdom went out with death, but death came back It needed no rest, and thoughtlessness remained: With the children of the people of earth; and in time Wisdom tried to return, and settled among a few Then came iniquity into every crack and crevice And the angels moved out again, and man Wondered if they'd return, for the few That were left, they were the dew And the thirst of these days, But like rain in a desert, They never came back.
#2325 ( 8-15-228)
Final Part of the Journey (Notes and Dream)
Journey into the Deep (Hell)
((Surr'el) (the Long Chain)) When I had woken up, I saw in a vision the following events, perchance, the angelic beings did not prefer to show me these, personally but with an adjustment to my eyes, I saw what they wanted me to see: those locked in Sheol came forward, brought back to life, and voice was picking out the ones whom were holy from the dead (of one of the 72-deaths). I seen many souls wrapped in linen, walking with dark faces, or no faces, and among the risen dead, the Elect One, selected and saved, he sat on a throne and called their names. And the mountains and the hills moved when I talked, and the angels were present, and many glowed and smiled for they had known many of the dead (this was a secret vision I do expect).
I heard my name, it was Surr'el, he said he was he angel of peace, for now and then, that what was revealed to me was then, not now. And I sat as if in a honeycomb, and it seemed to be melting about me. And all the souls deep into a valley, a sea of people, sinners, facing the earth, and then came a long, very long chain, and Satan was the tied to the first link, And Azaz'el, to the second, and on and on, until they got to the demons, such as Agaliarept, Satan's Henchman in Hell, other Demonic soldiers (Buer, one of the guards in hell, under his command) Gusoyn; the three Heated Dogs; Amduscias, the Grand Duke of Hell, Belphegor, the King of the Demons, Tyr the Mischievous; and the Nightmare Demon, and the lesser spirits.
And the chain was long and heavy, and the Angel of peace had prepared these chains and the smaller links were for the kings of the world, those destroyers of the earth and peace, and humankind.
And I put my hands over my head, trying to wipe away anymore visions, but nonetheless they came, and I saw: great judgment and disasters, feminine, tribulation and a deep valley. And there was fire in the valley, and many a soul was pushed into it, and the chain dragged many more into it. I saw Micha'el again, he was present, and Gabriel (and I told myself, "When will this day and night ever end!"
Then I say a host, a horde more like it of Holy Angels marching, with an iron and bronze net, and they searched high and low, and those they found hiding and guilty, henceforth, to be reckoned with, they cast into the crevices of the abyss in the valley. And the valley got filled up with bodies, and the elite of the earth was shaken by what was happening, and just then, the earth shook, from end to end, and all could feel and hear the sound of this noise, and those whom did not want to bow, bowed anyhow.

Are you: Dead or Alive? (For Old Folks)) Commentary))

Are you: Dead or Alive? (For Old Folks)) Commentary))


You give up being afraid because you want to live, otherwise you are alive without knowing you are, and simply remain afraid—but to live and be alive, and know so, is to be afraid and to allow it, it tells you something—, it tells you it is better than being dead. My uncle lived with heart problems, like so many, died at 61-years old, and was afraid to live, thus, he lived like he was dead already, like he had a pocket full of dynamite ready to explode at any minute, had it in his hip pocket I think, that is worse than being dead.
On the other hand, my mother died at 83-years old, lived like life was her gift, and the moment she was in, it was to be lived, lived, in the moment. They were going to put her in an old folks home, complications the last thirty days of her life, and she said, “Who wants to live like this, would you?” And of course I nodded my head no, and she died before they could bring her to such a place, to pace the floor, and be turned over by orderlies, every hour, and spoon feed. That’s how it was, and that is how it would have been, had I allowed them to take her, and she didn’t want to be taken. They asked me, “What do you want to do?” I said, “I’m not dying, she is, it is what she wants to do, not me…” (end of conversation).
My Grandpa died in his home at 83-years old, died of a stroke they say, he lived in the moment. My great grandfather fell off a roof and died, at a younger age, perhaps never knew what happened until he woke up and found out he was dead. And my aunt, she died at 78-years old, recently, I think to an allergic reaction, she was living with her granddaughter.
My father in law, went on a long trip for three months, he is going on 86-years old in a few months. He told me, “Maybe I’ll see you again (soon).” My wife didn’t catch that response, but I did. Meaning, I may or may not come back, because everyday counts now.
Old folks are aware time is short, and young folks think they got lots of time to spare, usually that is the way it is, except for wartime of course. It is how it is suppose to be. Before this year is up, somebody I know will die, perhaps me, but I refuse to quietly go out, why? Because what else do we have but life. I am no longer looking for reasons or answers to life’s mysteries, leave that for psychology, I want to continue racing down the path of life, this is my time, my hour, in which will be over quickly enough anyhow. Thus flee while you can life is but a few evenings later…then it is morning, a new haven will be at hand. And whatever you got in the piggy bank, will not be there waiting for you at the new haven resort, or perhaps the abyss, depending on which way the wind shifts you.

The World in Disorder: Specific Times

The World in Disorder: Specific Times


We are losing our Ice sheets in Antarctica, and the Pacific and Indian Oceans are having their toll on mankind, and good ole mother earth, and we are sucking the oil out of her like draining the whirlpool dry, plus, weather temperatures are unpredictable along the Ring of Fire, and throughout the Gulf of Mexico, and from the East to West Coast of the United States, and Western Europe. The Arabs have enough oil to ignite WWIII, as they have been trying for some time now. We are letting psychopathic rouge countries like North Korea and Iran, acquire the Atomic Bomb, while the United Nations tries to pacify the situation, and let them Black Mail, the world. What is going on around us? I thought it was bad in the 80s, and the 90s, but the new century is nothing to sneeze at, if we live through this century, it will be a miracle, and I mean really, and will have to be by God intervening. Parts of Africa that once had plenty of water within its lakes and rivers are also drying up, because of weather, and dams. And again we see fighting and starvation from the West to the East to the South of Africa, and throughout the Middle East. We got leaders in South America that should be shoe shinning, not trying to lead countries. Dictators that know how to talk, stand up in front of a crowd and bellyache, and cry, and fly here and there and boast about this and that, and do nothing for their people.

These are what I call Specific Times. When I say that, I mean, these times are not set, they are free standing, let me explain. Biblically, there are two periods of times, now and then. We are in the now time, Israel has returned to its land. Bondage is over. Thus, for the world, the sun is coming down. We are in what I call a deep sleep. Back in the old days, a generation was considered a hundred years, not thirty-three, back in Abraham’s day that is. This was not an approximate time, but an exact date. The Israelites were forced to leave their land, and thus went into captivity; once with Egypt, once with Babylon. The fall of Jerusalem came about. The Jews were scattered among the nations for 2520-years, as foretold by Daniel and Ezekiel.

The date I am working up to is A.D. 2004 (now passed by three years); it was arranged so we could not set dates in advance during these last days, but accordingly, we would have stopped at 516 B.C. (a fixed date); from there is when we start counting, for the final captivity of Nebuchadnezzar was in 586 BC, the final return being 516 B.C., beyond this we have no fixed dates but one date for 2520-years beyond, reads AD 2004.We are unsure want event will mark the return of Christ, but it is close. But we do know Christ will come to His Temple, so the Jews have to build it, correct? This is all sufficiently accurate for my purpose. For the understanding we will have to wait for the event, but undoubtedly it will come, if it was not 911, the mark of the end times, I do expect it to be bigger. But the countdown is surely now, this prophecy for 2520-years concerns all Israel, for with these, all Jews will have return to Israel, not a partial return as in the past, but in full, and to my understanding, no one on earth is holding them back any longer, the prophecy (s) have come about or about to, everything is in place.

So what is happening out there? I call them birth pains; we are in the end times.
