What the Bible says about light and seed

The True Light "In him, (the Lord Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world,…the world didn’t recognize him." John 1:4,9.

The Good Seed and the Weeds “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seeds in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. Matthew 13:24,25.

Eerie Past and Future Evil :: By Terry James

 Published on:  

Words coming from the heart of what many of us believe to be the reviving Roman Empire sounded to be both prologue and prescience. They were spoken by a German representative to the European Union’s parliament.

Christine Andersen, speaking while being interviewed by Steve Bannon of The War Room podcast, gave an eerie analysis of the mask mandates being issued by leaders around the world. She compared what is going on in today’s world to things going on during the time leading to the rise of the Third Reich.

She indicated much of the program involving attempts to gain complete control of the masses today is frighteningly similar to the program employed by the scientists, doctors, epidemiologists and others of the era just before Hitler and his henchmen took over Germany. She explained that their efforts during pre-Nazi Germany were geared toward separating people. They had at the center of their evil postulation that the totally unproven, so-called science showed that inferior races were disease carriers and needed to be separated from the “pure race.”

In the days leading to the holocaust, the Jews and Gypsies were the main targets; then, as the regime garnered power, all others who weren’t considered of the pure, Aryan bloodline were targeted for separation, sequestration in the ghettos and death in the extermination camps.

She said that is what the masking and the vaccines are all about now. They are touting a pseudo-scientific edict that all be mandated, using the masks and the vaccine threats of job loss and worse to separate people. Divide and conquer is the ages-old methodology tyrants always utilize to bring about their regimes of totalitarianism.

Andersen said that the (for the most part) ineffective masking and the untested, not officially approved vaccines in most cases had at the heart of their purpose the divide and conquer modus operandi of all tyrants. The globalist would-be masters had chosen those who refused to adhere to the demands of the elite –the mask and vaccine mandates— to turn the compliant against the resisters. Those who refuse to be vaccinated are declared to be spreaders of COVID. These must be punished by whatsoever methods that will make them comply with the tyrant’s dictates –All for the good of humanity, of course.

We have certainly been witness to the tyrannical methods used to try to turn the masses against those who don’t want to take “the jab,” as it is called. Rather than letting up on their demands, despite the growing number of people refusing the jab, those forces at the top that are almost without exception of the globalist mindset double down.

Much like the Nazis, the one-worlders try to initiate the destruction of prevailing culture from within the family unit. They know they can control more viciously, more completely, if they can take control of children away from parents. This is what the present cancel culture fascists are trying to accomplish through corruption within America’s and the world’s educational systems. It appears at present that those so determined to take the children totally from parental control have overstepped boundaries. The recent elections in Virginia validate this to some extent.

But the battle continues to rage. The evil one who incessantly makes war on humanity and humanity’s Creator continues to stalk about seeking ways to wreak destruction.

The following news item illustrates how Satan’s past wickedness during the rise of the Third Reich is making yet another assault at present. His minions are again using the children to do their destructive work. Again, it is the masks and the vaccines that are at the black heart of this Twenty-first Century attempt to help bring in the Antichrist system of control.

[Excerpt]

OAKLAND — San Francisco will soon require children as young as 5 to show proof of Covid-19 vaccination to enter certain indoor public spaces like restaurants, entertainment venues and sporting events, public health officials said this week.

The local mandate already requires children and adults over the age of 12 to show proof that they are vaccinated before entering those places. Now, city health officials are planning to extend the health order to children ages 5 to 11, the group newly eligible for the shot…

Vaccinations of the younger age group began Wednesday in California, the same day West Coast scientific experts announced they greenlighted the use of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children ages 5-11 — and a day after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended the kid-sized dose. The pediatric vaccine is a third of the adult dose and, like the adult formulation, is given in two doses, 21 days apart.

Officials from the San Francisco Department of Public Health on Wednesday confirmed the plan, saying the city’s current vaccination and masking requirements will be reexamined once the younger children have adequate time to be vaccinated.

Source: 5-year-olds soon have to show vaccine cards in San Francisco By Victoria Colliver, POLITICO, 11/03/2021]

I like the way Geoffrey Grider of Nowtheendbegins.com summarizes and frames this past and future evil.

People get mad when you compare the Yellow Star placed on Jews in Nazi Germany in the 1930s with the COVID vaccine mandates being forced on people here in 2021, but in point of fact, the two are surprisingly and alarmingly similar. The Yellow Star created two classes of people, and the vaccine mandate does exactly the same thing. The only question is, have we learned anything from history, or is it getting to repeat itself again? Don’t answer; it’s rhetorical.

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us” (Ecclesiastes 1:9:10).

Venezuela: this is what a financial collapse looks like – apocalyptic social meltdown, no food, and violent crime

Republished from The Extinction Protocol page - FB


A C 2
May 2016VENEZUELA The United States is increasingly concerned about the potential for an economic and political meltdown in Venezuela, spurred by fears of a debt default, growing street protests and deterioration of its oil sector, U.S. intelligence officials said on Friday. In a bleak assessment of Venezuela’s worsening crisis, the senior officials expressed doubt that unpopular leftist President Nicolas Maduro would allow a recall referendum this year, despite opposition-led protests demanding a vote to decide whether he stays in office.
 But the two officials, briefing a small group of reporters in Washington, predicted that Maduro, who heads Latin America’s most ardently anti-U.S. government and a major U.S. oil supplier, was not likely to be able to complete his term, which is due to end after elections in late 2018. “You can hear the ice cracking. You know there’s a crisis coming,” one U.S. official said. “Our pressure on this isn’t going to resolve this issue.”
 
Mobs in Venezuela have stolen flour, chicken and even underwear this week as looting increases across the crisis-hit OPEC nation where many basic products have run short, and the U.S. officials said this could spiral into widespread unrest. Soldiers fired tear gas at stone-throwing protesters on Wednesday as Venezuela’s opposition marched to pressure electoral authorities into allowing a recall referendum against Maduro. –Reuters
A Collapse Venezuela
Running out of food: Lines at supermarkets stretch for blocks on end in Venezuela. Often when you finally make into the store, the “shelves are already barren,” reports many residents. –AP
Over the last several years we have documented with clockwork regularity Venezuela’s collapse into failed state status, which was cemented several weeks ago when news hit that “Venezuela had officially run out of money to print new money.”  At that point the best one could do was merely to step back and watch as local society and civilization turned on itself, unleashing what would ultimately turn into Venezuela’s own, sad apocalypse.
As we wrote then these are simply hungry Venezuelans protesting that their children are dying from lack of food and medicine and that they do not have enough water or electricity. As AgainstCronyCapitalism added, this is a country with more oil than Saudi Arabia, and the government has stolen all the money and now they bottleneck peaceful protesters and threaten them with bombs (or haul them to prison and torture them).
AC Rate 
As pure desperation has set in, crime has becomes inevitable. A man accused of mugging people in the streets of Caracas was surrounded by a mob of onlookers, beaten and set on fire, who published a pixeled-out but still graphic video of the man burning as mob justice is now the supreme arbiter of who lives and who dies: “Roberto Fuentes Bernal, 42, was reportedly caught trying to mug passersby in the Venezuelan capital, and before police arrived at the scene, the crowd took the law into their own hands.” 
Now, in the latest shocking development, Venezuela saw a new wave of looting this week that resulted in at least two deaths, countless wounded, and millions of dollars in losses and damages. According to Panampost, on Wednesday morning, a crowd sacked the Maracay Wholesale Market in the central region of Venezuela.  According to the testimonies of merchants, the endless food lines that Venezuelans have been enduring to do groceries could not be organized that day.
As time went by, desperate Venezuelans grew anxious over not being able to buy food. Then they started jumping over the gates and stormed the supermarket. “They took milk, pasta, flour, oil, and milk powder. There were 5,000 people” one witness told Venezuela outlet El Estímulo. People from across the entire state came to the supermarket because there were rumors that some products not found anywhere else would be sold there. As a result of the massive crowd, the authorities were unable to preserve the peace. “There were 250 people for each National Guard officer… lots of people and few soldiers. At least one officer was beat up because he tried to stop the crowd,” another source told El Estímulo.
Other food dispensaries run by the government were also looted by the people. Far from the promised socialist paradise, as the massive group of people moved, an entrance gate collapsed under the weight of the crowd, leaving several wounded. –Info Wars
The dominoes are starting to fall in large numbers. There are a host of other countries that are in serious financial trouble that you may not have even heard about. Without serious reform or aid; they are likely headed for a financial collapse. The repercussions of their collective collapse will be nothing short of a global financial market Armageddon. I warned of this coming nightmare two years ago in my book, Utopia the Collapse. Prepare yourself and get ready.  -Alvin Conway

Your Arm's Too Short to Box with God - by Hal Lindsey

Via Omega Letter community - FB
In 1927, James Weldon Johnson published his classic book of poems, God's Trombones: Seven Negro Sermons in Verse.

One of them is called, "The Prodigal Son." It begins with the famous words, "Young man -- Young man -- Your arm's too short to box with God."

Apparently the powers that be in American sports disagree. I'm not talking about individual athletes. I'm referring to the big professional sports leagues and the media that cover them.
Though they have nothing to gain and everything to lose, it appears to me that they have decided to go to war against God. Further, it seems to me that they have also decided to go to war against the average American.

And that seems an odd thing to do since the average American fan is the one who puts money into their pockets.
And what life or death issue has caused these normally perceptive business people to place themselves as arbiters of right and wrong in America? And also to publicly threaten to punish the citizens of states which disagree with their political point of view?

Restrooms.
More precisely: Your right to feel safe and secure when you visit a public restroom.
Even more precisely: Your mother's, wife's, mother-in-law's, sister's, daughter's, grandmother's, granddaughter's, niece's, cousin's, girlfriend's, co-worker's, or female friend's right to feel safe and secure when they visit a public restroom.
And why? So that .003 percent of the population can live out their fantasies and use the restrooms of the opposite sex.
No. I'm not making this up. I wish to heaven that I were.

But this is America 2016, where being politically correct trumps common sense. Where bowing and scraping to the LGBT lobby (which, by the U.S. government's own figures, comprise less than 3% of the total population) trumps the traditional values of the vast majority of Americans.

To allow a man to freely and brazenly enter a public womens' restroom and do his business (and maybe more?) simply because he says he "feels" like a woman that day is beyond nonsense, it's insanity. But that's where ESPN, The National Basketball Association (NBA), The National Football League (NFL), American Airlines, PayPal, Wells Fargo, and Target, to name but a few, have chosen to make their stand and invest their credibility.
And I'm not just talking about tacitly agreeing to such nonsense, I'm talking about firing people who disagree and publicly threatening to wreak economic harm on the citizens of entire states if they do not capitulate to their way of thinking.

That's what is happening in North Carolina. When the state legislature passed a law requiring people in the state to use public restrooms that correspond to their birth gender, an incensed NBA threatened to pull the 2017 All-Star Game from Charlotte. PayPal vowed to stop its involvement in the state, which meant the withdrawal of several billions of dollars in construction funds and jobs. American Airlines and Wells Fargo made similar threats against North Carolina's citizens.

The state's governor, Pat McCrory ignored the threats and signed the bill the day it was passed.
Not like Georgia, where a similar bill was passed by the Georgia Legislature. The NFL threatened to stop having Super Bowls in Atlanta and the governor folded and vetoed the bill.

All of this over the issue of letting transgender individuals, and any others who so wish on a given day, decide to use the restroom for the opposite sex. These common sense laws simply say that if you have outside plumbing, you use the men's room. If you have inside plumbing, you use the ladies. Or go into the private restroom and lock the door behind you. Your sexual preference doesn't matter. This is a simple, physical determination.
But that's not good enough for the LGBT crowd. They want us to do it their way or suffer the consequences from their corporate enforcers.

Folks, this is nothing short of corporate persecution. But it's not about religion, you say. Not yet. But it is about being punished because we make common sense choices based on certain moral values. Moral values that the elites and other powers that be want to see eroded so that one day they can do what they choose, when they choose. Morality be damned.
But, you may protest, when corporations make vague threats against entire states, it doesn't really affect individuals.

It affected Curt Schilling.
The pitcher for the Boston Red Sox cemented his place in baseball history when he won Game Six of the 2004 American League Championship Series (ALCS) over the New York Yankees. He pitched just days after ankle surgery and endured a sore and bleeding ankle to go seven innings and allow only one run. His bloody sock became a part of Major League Baseball history. The Red Sox went on to win the World Series. Schilling has three World Series rings.

ESPN, the major American sports broadcaster, hired Schilling to work as a color commentator for its telecasts. But Schilling is an outspoken man with conservative values. Last year, he was disciplined by the network when he made the comment on his personal social media outlet that people claim that only 5% to 10% of Muslims are extremists. He noted that when Hitler rose to power, only 7% of Germans were part of the Nazi party. Then he asked, "How'd that go."
He almost lost his job.
Last month, Schilling posted a picture on his personal Facebook page of a grotesquely dressed transvestite man. The caption asked if you wanted to let this man into the restroom with your daughter. It noted that if you didn't want that to happen, then you are considered narrow-minded, judgmental, unloving, and racist.

Every word he posted was true. Like his first post in 2015. But each one bore consequences.
This time, Schilling was summarily fired for his personal, non-work-related view. Which ESPN has every right to do.
But not only did ESPN fire him, they went back and completely removed the portion of a documentary program on that 2004 ALCS series that showcased Schilling's performance in the critical Game Six. Coincidence?
But ESPN may suffer consequences, too. When it starts punishing people for expressing a view outside of work that is held by the vast majority of Americans, it should expect some blowback.

And maybe it's already started. For a variety of reasons, ESPN, once a model American success story and cash machine for The Walt Disney Company, has started hemorrhaging. Its value has declined dramatically recently. So much so that it has begun to affect Walt Disney's bottom line. Coincidence?
ESPN, Walt Disney, the NFL, the NBA, American Airlines, Wells Fargo, PayPal, Target, and others may soon learn the hard lesson that, "Your arm's too short to box with God!"
But that's not all I'll cover on this week's program.

I'll discuss the recent election of Sadiq Khan as Mayor of London. With his selection, London becomes the first major western city in history to elect a Muslim mayor.
And on May 30, France is hosting a meeting of major players to plan a Middle East peace summit later this year. All the usual suspects will be there. In fact, it appears to be a reunion of the infamous "Quartet" of organizations and states: the UN, the EU, the US, and Russia. The goal of the summit? Devise a plan for dividing Jerusalem and finally bringing peace to the Middle East through a two-state solution in Israel.
And if Israel doesn't adopt the plan? Well, France vows to then officially recognize Palestine as an independent nation.
137 nations already do, but the United States provides cover for Israel at the UN Security Council. But now it appears that Germany is starting to turn its back on Israel, too. A Middle Eastern news outlet insists that Europe is turning against Israel as a result of the leadership of the American White House. It insists that, "This belated European insight was the result of American inspiration." (Al-Monitor)

Folks, the prophet Zechariah predicted that in the last days, "...all of the nations of the world will be gathered against it (Israel)." (Zechariah 12:3) We are seeing that happening right now.

Finally, I will discuss the differences between the Bible and the Koran. The world considers both of them to be "holy books." One is said to have been handed down intact through an angel, with no human involvement, and committed to the page hundreds of years after the "revelation."

The other is "God-breathed." Written by 40 different authors from various times and places, it coordinates perfectly and seamlessly. It does not contradict science, history, or nature, but confirms them, though primitive men wrote it.
Its prophecies have thus far been fulfilled with 100% accuracy. In fact, its test for the validity of a prophet is either 100% accuracy or death by stoning. Tough standards.

It miraculously combines "spiritual thoughts with spiritual words." (I Corinthians 2:13) And though it does not make sense to those who are spiritually "dead," it promises that anyone who wants to experience a spiritual rebirth can do so and become "spiritually alive."
Tune in this week to discover which book is which. (If you don't already know.)

Can’t make sense of crazy

A man goes to a psychologist with a problem. “Doctor,” he says, “I’m suffering terribly. I feel like a woman trapped inside the body of a man. I want to become a woman.”

The psychologist responds: “No problem. We can discuss this idea for a couple of years, and if you’re still sure you want to be a woman, we can have a surgeon remove your penis, give you hormones for breast enlargement and make other changes to your body. Problem solved.”

Gratified, the first patient leaves, followed by a second. “Doctor,” he says, “I feel terrible. I’m a man but I feel attracted to other men. I want to change my sexual preference. I want to become heterosexual.”
The psychologist responds: “Oh no, absolutely not! That would be unethical. Sexual orientation is an immutable characteristic!” 
Family therapist Adam Jessel offered a similar observation: “In today’s climate, if Bill tells me that he is attracted to his neighbor Fred’s young child and he wants to reduce these attractions, I, as a therapist, can try to help him. If Bill has an unwanted attraction to Fred’s wife, this too is something I am permitted to help him with. But if Bill has an unwanted attraction to Fred himself, then it’s regarded as unethical for me to help.” 
If this new bill becomes law, it would not only be considered unethical to help Bill deal with his same-sex attractions, it would be illegal.
–Journalist Matthew Cullinan Hoffman, 2009 (Source)
My mind is becoming numb.  There is a divide in our world now that can’t be breached.  We watch as the portion of humanity that has rejected God, moves deeper into delusion, and we are stunned by what we witness.  It seems impossible to those who accept Truth, that those who reject it can become so blind and utterly confounded and confused.  We struggle with the mandate to continue to offer the gospel when it is like trying to communicate with Helen Keller before the breakthrough.
We speak, but it feels as if there is a tempered glass wall between us that stops the words from reaching them.  We are shocked by the animosity that sometimes comes our way just for living our convictions.
 
I have had dealings with people who are missing some component of the human psyche.  You probably have too. Some are missing a conscience, for instance.  I have had dealings with people who, as hard as it is to believe, have no capacity for empathy.  Sometimes it is addiction that clouds the mind and strips them of this basic human characteristic.  Sometimes it may be a mental illness or some anomaly of birth.  It is true.  The number of serial killers on record bears this out.
 
But more and more, it seems humanity as a whole is getting cold and heartless.  The Bible said it would happen, but still, it is not easy to face.
People with a healthy and normal compassion and sense of concern for others, can be utterly stymied when they come up against someone who is devoid of those traits.  We automatically try to make some sort of sense of it.  We often will assume it must be an error in our own perceptions.  Or that because they are so easily angered or offended, we must be doing something wrong in our efforts to communicate.  We have always been aware that evil exists in this world, but we are seeing it grow and multiply at such an alarming rate now, like something out of science fiction. Funny thing about that, as science fiction once seemed so far-fetched, and now, it is becoming reality.
 
But the truth is, we aren’t doing anything wrong in our effort to communicate.  Words still mean what they used to mean, but it’s just that a majority of people now reject the definition, because they reject anything not of their own self-determination.
 
In attempting to reach them, we are merely trying to do what may very well in fact have become impossible.  When someone is so far gone that they no longer believe the established laws of nature, the spiritual laws, and no longer accept that civil laws applies to them, they are, quite simply, beyond reach.  Trying to make them “see” what they essentially poked their own eyes out in order not to see, is futile, and will only make another person crazy, who tries to make sense of it all.  You either have to enter into their place of depravity and lawlessness, (their alternate “reality) or you have to somehow reconcile it with the Truth that you know.  And that is impossible.  Truth is singular.
 
We are living in a world where increasingly more of the world’s population seems to actually believe that truth is relative, that everyone can have their own “truth”.  They did not change the definition of truth, they merely misapply it. On purpose.
It is like placing a sane person in the midst of an asylum, and leaving them there. You don’t think they are going to be insane along with everyone else by the end of a week or a month?
 
This is why God has to remove us in the Rapture.  This message is for the ones like myself who are just about at wits end with the course and trajectory of this world, and oh-so-ready to get off this merry-go-round of lunacy.
Sometimes a person has to admit that there is nothing more that they can do.  We want to rescue others.  It is natural for most people to want to do that.  Christians have a mandate to throw out that lifeline to others.  Noah got on the ark, as commanded by God, seven days before the rain actually came. He had warned for a long time of the destruction that was coming.  Then he got on the ark.  For seven more days, the ark door was open, for animals continued to come aboard, and therefore humans could also have come, but none did.
Noah worked until God told him to take his family into the ark.  At that point his work was done.  I am sure that Noah and his family were confounded and shocked by the fact not one other human chose to get on board.  Not one of the rest of humanity believed the destruction was really going to come.
 
You and I who believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ, are still warning the world, regardless of whether they are receptive to our message or not, we keep clanging the bell.  But soon God is going to shut that door.  “Rain” is going to fall for seven days.  Judgment is going to fall for seven years.  People who become believers during the tribulation, will still have an ark, but the door that was closed supernaturally by God before the flood waters came, was opened manually by Noah when the flood waters receded. That means they could have opened it and gone out any time.  Noah and his family remained in the ark not because they could not get out, but because they believed God.  Everyone else perished outside the ark because they did not believe God.  Judgment is coming.  Everyone is free to believe or not believe this.  In the tribulation, he who endures to the end shall be saved.
 
To us who love Truth, is given the ability to know Truth.  To those who love not Truth, it is given to believe lies.  Does truth really have to be “defended”?  Have we been given the task of convincing people?  Nope.  Just telling them.  Just speaking the Word.  Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing cometh by the Word.
 
Jesus is coming soon.  This world can’t be “fixed”.  It is destined to be destroyed by fire, and a new one will be created.  Man is not going to achieve singularity, godhood, nor immortality.   The worlds religions will unite, and that global religion will facilitate the rise of a global government, out of which a single world leader will emerge, Damascus will be obliterated, Israel will be attacked, all sort of catastrophic events will bombard the Earth and its inhabitants for a seven year period.  The world’s elite will join Satan himself in waging war against the Most High at Megiddo, and the Most High will defeat them with the Words of His mouth alone.
 
This is truth. Let all the other craziness fall by the wayside.  It is not going to make sense to people who have no familiarity with Scripture, and a lot of people for whom scripture has been twisted, are going to embrace lunacy to whatever degree they have already embraced false teachings.  Reconciling all of the different “versions” of the outcome that have been dreamed up by the imaginations of men, is a lost cause and waste of energy.  Constant armchair speculation and analysis of blow-by-blow events as they happen, while not necessarily a waste of time, will neither hasten nor delay the timing of events.  We have no more control over these events by staying informed in real time, than if we paid no attention at all.  If knowing serves any purpose at all, it is, and should be, to motivate us to continue to offer the gospel.
 
Since Christ ascended to heaven after His resurrection, the church has been building an ark and warning the world of judgment to come.  I have been actively warning people since 2009, and through this particular blog since 2012.   God knows when He will shut the door and when the rain will start.  I don’t know that Noah was preaching for the 100 (or 120) years while he built the ark.  I know that the fact he was building the ark was a testimony in and of itself.  A witness to a lost world.  God doesn’t beg.  He doesn’t twist arms.  He doesn’t force anyone.  He told the disciples that in towns where they were not received, they were to simply shake off the dust of that place from their sandals, and move on.  To those who peddled any other gospel, they, and we, are not even to wish them “God speed” because it is to be a partaker of their apostasy.
 
I am not sure that the Great Commission is actually what some folks say it is.  God told the church to go into the world and preach the gospel to everyone.  That’s not down to one person, it is the obligation of the entire body.  The question for us is have we done our own part? Only you can answer that.
 
There are people who go out to meet the fight, and there are people who sit quietly where they are, minding their own affairs until the fight comes to them.  We all have different callings and assignments.  Fighting the good fight doesn’t always mean doing the same things.  Sometimes the task changes.  And sometimes, it’s a matter of “having done all, stand” (wearing the armor) and see the deliverance the Lord provides, the victory (for His own) and devastation (of His enemies) which He brings about.  Sometimes we are to simply “be still and know that He is God”.
 
You’ll know which it is, and when, as long as you remain attuned to Him.  But please, don’t waste time caught up in trying to make sense of “crazy”.  It is a Satanic diversion designed to rob you of peace.  Let others argue and doubt, let them pursue every theory and flit here and there behind every claim.  That’s their prerogative.  It is foolish, but it is still their prerogative.

Will A Gateway Be Opened When The Arch From The Temple Of Baal Is Reconstructed In Times Square?

Republished from endoftheamericandream.com
via servehiminthewaiting.com
Science Fiction Gateway Or Portal 
In April, part of the Temple of Baal that stood in Palmyra, Syria will be reconstructed in Times Square in New York City and in Trafalgar Square in London.  The specific portion that is being erected in both cases is the 48-foot-tall arch that stood at the entrance to the temple.  The Institute of Digital Archaeology is the organization behind this effort, and the display of these two arches is intended to be the highlight of UNESCO’s World Heritage Week late next month.  After seeing my initial story, one of my readers observed that an arch is really just a gateway or a portal.  In other words, it can serve as both an entrance and an exit.  So could it be possible that we will be unknowingly setting up a gate or a portal of some sort in Times Square?

The worship of Baal, also known as Bel, can be traced all the way back to ancient Babylon.  According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, Marduk was “the chief god of the city of Babylon”, and ultimately he became known as “Bel” or “Lord”…
Marduk, in Mesopotamian religion, the chief god of the city of Babylon and the national god of Babylonia; as such, he was eventually called simply Bel, or Lord. Originally, he seems to have been a god of thunderstorms. A poem, known as Enuma elish and dating from the reign of Nebuchadrezzar I (1124–03 bce), relates Marduk’s rise to such preeminence that he was the god of 50 names, each one that of a deity or of a divine attribute. After conquering the monster of primeval chaos, Tiamat, he became Lord of the Gods of Heaven and Earth. All nature, including man, owed its existence to him; the destiny of kingdoms and subjects was in his hands.
And it is interesting to note that according to Wikipedia, the name of the city of Babylon is believed to have originally come from an Akkadian word that meant “Gate of God” or “Gateway of the God”…
The English Babylon comes from Greek Babylṓn (Βαβυλών), a transliteration of the Akkadian Babili.[5] The Babylonian name in the early 2nd millennium BC had been Babilli or Babilla, which appears to be an adaption of an unknown original non-Semitic placename.[6] By the 1st millennium BC, it had changed to Babili under the influence of the folk etymology which traced it to bāb-ili (“Gate of God” or “Gateway of the God“).[7]
So now we are setting up a “gateway” or a “portal” for the chief God of ancient Babylon in the heart of our most important city next month.
Does anyone else out there find this more than just a little bit creepy?
It just seems so surreal that an arch from the Temple of Baal that is nearly five stories high is going to be erected in Times Square in April.  But this is actually happening.  The following comes from the New York Times
NEXT month, the Temple of Baal will come to Times Square. Reproductions of the 50-foot arch that formed the temple’s entrance are to be installed in New York and in London, a tribute to the 2,000-year-old structure that the Islamic State destroyed last year in the Syrian town of Palmyra. The group’s rampage through Palmyra, a city that reached its peak in the second and third century A.D., enraged the world, spurring scholars and conservationists into action.
This sounds like the plot for some really twisted episode of “Stargate” and not something that is supposed to happen in the real world.
And as I reported yesterday, the Institute of Digital Archaeology hopes to put hundreds more of these arches in major cities all over the planet.
What in the world are they thinking?
If we want to take all of this to another level of creepiness, let’s recall what I talked about the other day.  Baal evolved from the chief god of the city of ancient Babylon known as Marduk, and Marduk can be traced back to an actual historical person.  This historical person was known in Sumerian literature as “King Enmerkar”, and in the Bible he was known as “Nimrod”.  Here is a portion of a quote from Peter Goodgame that I included in an article the other day
Traditionally the Tower of Babel event has been associated with Nimrod, and Jewish commentaries as well as the Jewish historian Josephus both seem very emphatic on this point. Regarding the Sumerian name Enmer-kar, the suffix “kar” means “hunter,”  and so “Enmer-kar” is in fact “Enmer the Hunter,” just as Nimrod is referred to as the “Mighty Hunter” in Genesis 10. Furthermore, Enmerkar is named on the Sumerian King List as “the one who built Uruk,” just as Nimrod is described in Genesis 10:10 as having a kingdom that began in “Babel (Eridu) and Erech (Uruk)… in the land of Shinar.” After Enmerkar’s death he became honored in Sumerian myth as the semi-divine hero Ninurta, and eventually this cult evolved into the great cult of Marduk, which became the state religion of Babylon after the conquests and religious innovations of Hammurabi.
The cult of Marduk was the root of all of the ancient pagan religions of the Middle East, Egypt, Greece and Rome.  In those other religions, the deity of Marduk came to be known by other names such as Baal, Osiris, Apollo, etc.  And today there are many secret societies and occult groups that look forward to the day when this pagan deity will be resurrected and will return to rule the world once again. This is something that I explained in our latest YouTube video


I know that all of this may sound very strange to you, but many of these secret societies and occult groups take this stuff deadly seriously.  And many Christian scholars are convinced that there is a link between the coming of the Antichrist and this ancient pagan deity based on the actual historical figure of Nimrod.
So could it be possible that we are laying out a couple of giant welcome mats for this ancient pagan deity by erecting these giant arches in New York and London next month?
Could we be opening up gateways and portals that are extremely dangerous and that we simply do not understand?
I don’t know about you, but for me the construction of these giant arches is a very, very bad sign…

Bill Koenig - Eye to Eye

White House news correspondent, Bill Koenig, the founder of Koenig’s World Watch Daily news service, can hardly keep up with all the biblically significant events happening around the world. Fulfilled prophecy is now front and center in the USA, Israel, Russia, Syria, Iran, China and Europe. After distributing tens of thousands of his ground-breaking Eye to Eye books—many to US Congressmen and Senators, Bill has finally turned his unique research into a brand new, magnificent DVD! Is God watching over Israel? Are individual nations punished by God for betraying His chosen people and attempting to divide “The Land?” What’s next on God’s prophetic calendar? This is a must-see interview!
