Stanford
University researchers have announced this week that they created
genetic receptors that can act as a "biological computer," potentially
revolutionizing how diseases are treated.
The research team described their system of genetic transistors in a publication released in the Science journal
on Friday. These genetic transistors can be inserted into living cells
and turned on or off, if certain conditions are met. The team of
researchers are opting to build these transistors into "microscopic
living computers." The transistors can be used to make cells do certain
things, "like telling cancerous cells to destroy themselves."
"We're
going to be able to put computers into any living cell you want," lead
researcher Drew Endy explained to the San Jose Mercury News.
Traditional
computers use millions of tiny transistors which control the flow of
electrons in the form of zeros and ones that make up binary code.
Multiple transistors working together can form a "logic gate," which
serves as the basic building block of all computations performed by
computers. Biological transistors, which researchers have named
"transcriptors," use enzymes to control the flow of RNA proteins along a
strand of DNA, just like computers use silicone transistors to control
the flow of electrons.
Just as computers use a bus to store
data, researchers have successfully stored data in DNA, and Stanford
University has already developed a method of using the M13 virus to
transmit strands of DNA between cells...In short, all of the building
blocks of a biological computer are in place, reported Extreme Tech.
Have
you noticed that they stop short of saying they will be able to control
the spread of disease and viruses? It seems they have developed the
technology to do just that, but we will likely never hear of that. It
has been said for years that researchers have discovered many cures, but
they are not used for, or released to the public at large. Have you
ever noticed that very wealthy people, who live conservative lifestyles, often
live into their 80s-90s? The average lifespan for people throughout the
world is 67.2 years. It seems the elite have access to advanced
medicine that the average person does not.
Additionally, the
agenda to depopulate the world is out in the open now. In fact, Bill
Gates, during his speech at a TED conference in Australia, openly stated
that vaccines are being used to curb the population. Bill Gates's words verbatim:
"The
world today has 6.8 billion people, that's heading up to about 9
billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, healthcare,
reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15
percent."
The Illuminati objective is to rid the world of
most of the population (down to 500,000,000 / 93 percent) by way of
vaccines, promotion of homosexuality in public schools, releasing
pestilence and depleting the food supply (including sterile seeds).
Many of the articles written throughout this Blog-News page expound on
those plans.
Our hope is the coming Savior. As Nimrod plotted to
build a tower that would even reach the height of God's throne, the
Lord confounded the people with different languages, so they would not
be able to complete their objective. The Lord's return is near and He
will establish His kingdom on this earth and at a critical point,
satan's plans will be defeated.
It turns out that many of the
things in life which could benefit everyone, end up in the hands of the
elite and greedy, only to be used as another tool to oppress the poor
and those of "low estate."
God, on the other hand, loves the
poor, the orphans, the widows and the oppressed. He is their deliverer
and He will come on the scene, just as things are about ready to spin
out of control.
"He (God) does not preserve the life of the wicked, but gives right to the poor" Job 36:6. Job is speaking about spiritual preservation and right, not here in this
physical realm right now. Eternity lasts forever, whereas the
injustices here on earth now are but for a moment in time
comparatively.
"For the needy shall not always be forgotten; the expectation of the poor shall not perish forever" Psalm 9:18. This is the Word of God. "He
(the wicked) sits in the lurking places of the villages; in the secret
places, he murders the innocent. His eyes are privily set against the
poor" Psalm 10:8.
"For
the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I
arise, saith the Lord; I will set him in safety from him who puffs at
him" Psalm 12:5. That day is soon coming.
If you haven't received the Lord as your Savior, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. Time is short and your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

Notice: As long as there is a Constitution and Freedom of Speech in the United States of America, what is written in this article is protected by the First Amendment!There
is a purposeful and powerful agenda to capture the minds of children
and open their thoughts to receiving the gay, lesbian and transgender
lifestyle in American schools.
Satan, behind America's public school agenda, is out to destroy your children!
A
high school teacher in Portland, OR, says he is about to be fired
because of his opposition to abortion and Planned Parenthood. Police
escorted Bill Diss from his classroom Tuesday and ordered him not to
return. Diss taught at Benson High School for 11 years.
Diss is a devout Catholic who opposes Planned Parenthood because they provide abortions and encourage sex among teenagers.
Commentary:
I have seen reports in the news media about Planned Parenthood's
methods of teaching sex education to very young elementary school
students and it is shameful. Planned Parenthood has been contracted to
provide sex education in public schools throughout the United States,
which is tragic, considering they also run abortion clinics throughout
the US. Should abortion-pushers be teaching sex education in schools? I
would be embarrassed to sit in their classroom and I am an adult. Not
only are they very explicit with very young children, but they have also
initiated homosexual sex education, which is absolutely abominable,
according to the Word of God (scriptural references included below)!
They provide instructions to young children about intimate homosexual
behavior, and that is putting it mildly.
It is of little
importance to the Illuminati that less than 2% of the population are
homosexuals. They have a depopulation agenda and they are promoting
homosexuality in the minds of young children as part of their program.
It should be obvious as to the reason why. Homosexuals cannot
procreate.
During his first term in office, Obama appointed an
openly homosexual "Safe Schools" czar, Kevin Jennings, who promotes
homosexuality in the nation's public schools. He founded and ran Gay,
Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) from 1990 to 2008. GLSEN
has been established in schools throughout the US and critics report
that the books promoted and distributed to students by GLSEN are pornographic.
GLSEN
states it works to create a welcoming atmosphere for homosexual
students in schools and that effort includes recommending books for
students of all ages.
GLSEN basically did not respond to the
fact that the books they distribute are pornographic. This is a
Christian website and I will not define some of the content that was
publicized in a Fox News report on this issue. I can state that, as an
example, one of their books for teens describes the story of a
15-year-old boy's sexual encounter with an older man. The book also
describes the author's sexual encounters in the first grade!
There is an all out war by the enemy against the youth of today. The Word of God tells us, "You
shall lay up My Words in your heart and in your soul and bind them for a
sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall teach them to your children, speaking
of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way, when
you lie down and when you rise up" Deuteronomy 11:18-19. I see
nowhere in this passage that we are to hand our children over to the
unGodly, so the unGodly can teach them abominations.
Christians, do you want your children to learn of your faith, or take on the ideology of those who are lost? Your
children are being spiritually attacked on every hand with this agenda,
and more like it in public schools. God's people need to seriously ask themselves if they want their children to be exposed to this...there is no other word for it...dung! Christians, if your child(ren) are in public schools, Arise!
The Word of God says, "You shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination" Leviticus 18:22. There are New Testament scriptures that teach against homosexuality in Romans 1:24-28.
There
is an evil agenda within public schools in America today and Christians
need to come together and pray and do what it takes to remove your
children from this satanically controlled system. If you can't do it
alone, possibly because you are single, divorced, or just do not have
the financial means to home educate or place your child(ren) in
Christian schools, you should consider pooling your efforts with others
in similar situations and come up with a plan. Parents who work might
possibly schedule different days off and rotate teaching groups of
children. This is an urgent situation and something must be done for
the sake of your children, for the very souls of your children.
I heard a Christian mother say,
"My children are witnesses to the other children at public school." We
shouldn't rely on our own understanding in the situation the world is in
today; we have to rely on the Word of God. The apostle Paul said, "When
I was a child, I spake as a child, I thought as a child, but when I
became a man, I put away childish things" 1 Corinthians 13:11. If you place your children, as little doves in the lion's cage, if you have a better option, your children are vulnerable. The Word of God also tells us, "Be not deceived, evil communications corrupt good manners" 1 Corinthians 15:33.
No matter how convenient the second job might be, or how pleasurable it
might be for you to get the kids out of the house for a while, I am
quoting scripture which contradicts that thinking. The Word of God does
not tell us to "send children out into the mission field." On the
contrary, we are to establish them in the faith when they are young. The Bible says, "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it" Proverbs 22:6.
That passage of scripture was written by King Solomon, the wisest king
who ever lived in his day, neither were there any before him, or after
him to compare, according to God's own words (2 Chronicles 1:12).
I
spend time in prayer, Bible study and research every day, most of the
time weekends included, and I ask God to give me reports that will work
to win souls for Christ, as well as strengthen those who may be weak. I
ask the Lord what He wants me to deliver in the way of prophetic
messages to benefit His people. This is what He gave me today, even
before I researched the headline to go with it. As I later searched the
news media for a story to tie in with the objective the Lord had for
today, this news story is what I found.
This devout Catholic is
in the midst of "spiritual mayhem" at this particular high school in
Oregon, and he is trying his very best to do what he can to deter kids
from tragedy, with all the forces of hell working against him. Now, he
stands to lose his livelihood, unless the Lord intervenes. I am praying
for this teacher, that God will provide him a job at a Christian
school, so he should not have to be escorted by the police from his
classroom and told not to return, because he cautions kids against sexual promiscuity and the pitfalls of pregnancy outside of marriage.
It
is very sad for the kids at the high school where Mr. Diss taught,
because without men and women who will stand up for truth, what is right
in God's eyes and morality, these children may be lost.
If you
are a Christian and you have children in the public school system,
please consider and pray about this news report and the possibility that
God is speaking to you about removing your child(ren) from a Godless
school system that, without God's help, will defile them with their
abominable curriculum and ideologies. Churches reported in a study that
65-94 percent of students did not return to church after graduating
high school (cpyu.org). Is it any wonder?
If
this message is for you, if you know in your heart that God is
directing you to take your child(ren) out of this Godless school system
that is corrupting the minds of children, please visit the Home Education
page of this website for more information. God does not lead us to do
anything that He doesn't enable us to accomplish. Please pray and
consider what the Lord will have you do for your child(ren). Many times
we are called to "walk by faith and not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7) when starting out. This was essential in my own plight to home educate. You can read my testimony on the Home Education page, as well as find helpful resources there.
We are living in the last days, friends, and the Word of God tells us that "perilous times shall come" 2 Timothy 3:1,
and those days are here. We are living in a world full of evil,
economic instability and immorality, which worsens as time advances.
People need the Lord. Even if God never promised His people eternal
life in glory, we should want to serve the Lord and receive His help and
blessings in this life, because the lives of those who don't know the
Lord are being ravaged and brought low in this world today.
The
great news is that God did promise eternal life to those who love Him
and receive His Son Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ died
to redeem all of us from sin, so that we can live in heaven, a holy
place where sin cannot enter in, if we will only receive His free gift
of redemption.
If you aren't saved, won't you receive the Lord
as your Savior today? Tomorrow is not guaranteed to anyone and tomorrow
could be too late. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. Your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

A
major 6.1 magnitude earthquake hit near Buli, Taiwan, on Wednesday, March 27, 2013, at 02:03:20 UTC, at a depth of 20.7 km
(12.9 mi).
There have been 43 major (>5.9) earthquakes in various
places over the last 55 days;
among which were five 7 and one 8 magnitude quakes!
Jesus said, "Great earthquakes
shall be in diverse places, famines and pestilences and there shall be
fearful sights and great signs from heaven" Luke 21:11.
During the previous 24 months, there have been at least 175 major earthquakes reported on this site. (Only earthquakes greater than 5.9 magnitude are reported on this page.)
Jesus said these
signs would appear before He returns, "Nation
will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be
famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places" Matthew 24:7.
The Word of God says,
"When they say, 'Peace and safety,' then sudden destruction will come
upon them, as travail upon a woman with child, and they (the wicked)
shall not escape" 1 Thessalonians 5:3.
Jesus also said, "Blessed are those servants whom the Master, when He comes, will find watching" Luke 12:37.

I read a book this morning written by evangelist Perry Stone titled Unlocking Secrets in the Second Coming Scrolls; great book, I highly recommend it. It being the "11th hour," I am compelled to share some important information I learned and excerpts from the book below:
There
were "three levels of warnings" before the destructive flood of Noah's
day. The Jewish historian Flavius Josephus revealed in his writings, The Antiquities of the Jews, that
"God imparted to Adam a revelation that the earth would be destroyed
twice, once by a volume of water and later by the violence of fire."
According to Josephus, Adam imparted this information to his son, Seth,
who in turn passed on the urgent warning on to his sons.
The
first method of warning was the prophetic message given by Adam to his
sons, who then passed the urgent warning down to their sons.
Seth's sons then engraved the message in brick and stone. Josephus wrote of the sons of Seth:
They
were also the inventors of that peculiar sort of wisdom which is
concerned with the heavenly bodies and their order. And that their
inventions might not be lost before they were sufficiently known, upon
Adam's prediction that the world was to be destroyed at one time by the
force of fire and at another time by the violence and quantity of water,
they made two pillars, one of brick and the other of stone: they
inscribed their discoveries on them both, that in case the brick might
be destroyed by the flood, the pillar of stone might remain and exhibit
these discoveries to mankind; and also to inform them that there was
another pillar of brick erected by them. Now this remains in the land of
Siriad to this day. (Flavius Josephus. Antiquities of the Jews, Chapter
II, section 3).
The second method of warning was the messages inscribed on stone and brick.
Enoch was the seventh righteous man from Adam. The Word of God says, "Enoch
lived sixty-five years and begot Methuselah. After he begot
Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and
daughters. So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five
years. And Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him"
Genesis 5:21-24.
Perry Stone pointed out that Enoch began
walking with God at age 65, after the birth of Methuselah. He asked,
"Why did the birth of Enoch's son, Methuselah, motivate Enoch toward
such spiritual dedication? The meaning of Methuselah's name may shed
some light on this question." He described how that Methuselah's Hebrew
name is a combination of the word met, which means death, and the word shelach, which means to initiate something. The root word means "to throw a spear or a javelin." The English letter u in Methuselah's name is the Hebrew letter vav, which means his death. Therefore,
the meaning of Methuselah's name is "his death will initiate," or "his
death will bring it." It was revealed to Enoch that something
cataclysmic would happen upon the death of Methuselah. Some traditions
indicate that Enoch was taken to heaven at age 65, where he received the
knowledge of heavenly mysteries. One revelation was that when
Methuselah died, a flood would cover the earth.
The third message was the testimony of Methuselah.
Reading
Perry Stone's book brought my thoughts to the present and how we are on
the brink of another major catastrophic fulfillment of prophecy, and I
pondered the methods being used to warn the people at this time.
Jesus said, "As
the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be,
for as in the days that were before the flood, they were eating and
drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah
entered the ark and knew not until the flood came and took them all
away; so shall also the coming of the son of man be" Matthew 24:37-39.
In
other words, life will be going on as usual, nothing so out of the
ordinary as to indicate that the Lord would appear. People, just as in
the days of Noah, will mock the warnings, such as those written daily on
this website. The Word of God says that people will even say, "Where
is the promise of His coming? for since the father's fell asleep, all
things continue as they were from the beginning of creation" 2
Peter3:4.
Did the flood happen? You can think not, but
as sure as the world turns, the flood came and only Noah and his family
were saved among the people that populated the entire world. The
accounts of Noah and the flood were written in ancient transcripts,
aside from the Biblical account. There have also been numerous
testimonies of the ark having been seen within the ice covering Mount
Ararat and samples of the ancient wood have been retrieved from the
site. Archeologists have also confirmed a worldwide flood.
Eight
souls among the world's population were spared, because they entered
the ark and heeded the prophetic warnings. Comparatively, there will be
few that make heaven from the world's population today. Jesus also
said, "Enter
in at the straight gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that
leads to destruction and many there be which go into it; because
straight is the gate and narrow is the way which leads unto life, and few be that find it" Matthew 7:13-14.
The
signs of the latter days, spoken of by the prophets, are finally here
and many are outlined throughout this website. If you haven't yet,
won't you come into the "ark of salvation" through Jesus Christ, before
it is too late and you step into eternity? If you haven't made that
choice, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. Your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

Those
of us who are "looking for His appearance" understand that the Third
Holy Temple must be rebuilt either preceding the great tribulation to
come, or at the very least will have been constructed within the first
two and a-half years of that seven-year timeframe. Since the antichrist
will stand in the Holy Place and declare himself to be god in the
"midst of the week (seven years)," according to Daniel 9:27, the Third Holy Temple will have to have been built in order for that to take place, as prophesied.
I wrote an article in 2011 about Adnan Oktar,
a prominent Muslim scholar, author and publisher in Turkey, who met
with the Sanhedrin in 2009 to discuss building the Third Holy Temple on
the Temple Mount. Adnan Oktar is extremely wealthy, is a professor in
the tenets of Islam and has written more books on the religion than any
other publisher. The Sanhedrin are more than impressed with his offer
to build the Third Holy Temple, according to their own specifications,
within one year.
On March 14, 2013, The Jewish Press printed an article published by Sinem Tezyapar, who is an executive producer with A9 TV, which
broadcasts from Istanbul, Turkey. She is also a political and
religious commentator. Falling in behind Adnan Oktar, she wrote,
"Freedom
of worship is an essential issue. The Temple Mount, where the First
and Second Temples stood, is the holiest place to the people of Israel.
However, it is no less holy to both Muslims and Christians. Since this
is a location that God has announced to be a 'house of prayer for all
nations,' it should be a place of festivity for all believers. As all
who call on the God of Abraham are brothers, Jews and Christians should
be able to offer prayers there in dignity and peace along with Muslims.
To cast believers out from such a place, to prevent worship there, is a
heinous and, quite frankly, cruel policy, which is an offense not only
to men, but to Islam. God Himself condemns anyone who forbids worship."
With
two very prominent Muslims calling for the Third Holy Temple to be
built on the Temple Mount, one offering to even "foot the bill," all who
believe should realize how very close we are to the return of the Lord,
according to Bible prophecy.
This is just one of the many end
times prophecies being fulfilled right before our eyes! There are many
more prophetic events reported throughout this Blog-News page. We live
in very exciting times, but also in perilous times, which was also
foretold (2 Timothy 3:1).
Are
you prepared to face God and give an account of the life you have lived
on this earth? Have you received His only begotten Son's death on the
cross as payment for your sins? We have all sinned and are in need of
the Savior's redemption. If you are not saved, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. There isn't much time and your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

We
recognize that in many ways history repeats itself. King Solomon, the
wisest king who ever lived, according to God's own Words (1 Kings 10:23). Solomon wrote, "The
thing that has been 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"
Ecclesiastes 1:9.
There are hundreds of prophecies written
throughout the Bible and most of them have come to pass already and
some are yet to come. King David, who wrote most of the book of Psalms,
was not only a king, but he was also a prophet, writing many prophecies
about the coming Savior. For example, he wrote, "Dogs have compassed me, the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me, they pierced my hands and my feet" Psalm 22:16. This, of course, was written about the Lord's crucifixion. There are a number of prophecies written about Jesus in Psalm 22.
Asaph,
a descendant of Levi and chief musician in God's Temple, also wrote
numerous psalms in the book of Psalms. During my study of Psalm 74, I
found one of his psalms to be prophetic of our generation. Among other
things, he wrote, "A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees" Psalm 74:5.
Not
only did they have one who was famous for logging in Asaph's day, but I
immediately thought of Paul Bunyan, the notorious lumberjack. Many
believe him to be mythical, although there are legends that he was a
real man, 6'4" tall, weighing about 300 pounds and lived in Quebec. It
was said, he also fought for the rights of his neighbors.
Asaph went on to write in the following verse, "But
now they break down the carved work at once with axes and hammers. They
cast fire into Thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the
dwelling place of Thy name to the ground. They said in their hearts,
'Let us destroy them together;' they have burned up all the synagogues
of God in the land" Psalm 74:6-8.
As
I studied Psalm 74, I realized that not only were the wicked burning
synagogues and conspiring in their hearts to destroy God's people in
Asaph's day, but my thoughts went to an article I wrote in January about
how Muslims were burning churches, trapping Christian worshipers inside
and burning them alive in Nigeria and other parts of Africa! Muslim
mobs burned down 288 churches in Nigeria alone in recent years and
hundreds, possibly thousands have been burned alive! The Muslims are
attempting to "purge" Africa of Christians, in the name of "Allah."
Imagine that, committing such mayhem and torture in the name of their
god!
Jesus told His disciples, "They
shall put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time will come that
whoever kills you will think he does God a service" John 16:2.
The persecution and slaughter of Christians occurred in Christ's day,
and it happens throughout the world today, especially in North Korea,
China, Viet Nam, the Middle East and Africa. With Obama immigrating
tens of thousands of Muslims into the United States, we are now seeing
"honor killings," beheadings and Muslims killing their family members
who convert to Christianity in the US.
Jesus also told His disciples that one of the signs of His return is that Christians would be persecuted and killed. He said, "Then
shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you and you
shall be hated of all nations for My name's sake" Matthew 24:9.
The
Bible is flowing with prophecies and undeniable truths, if people would
only pray and open the pages. I pray before I study the Bible each day
and it never ceases to amaze me how rich the Word of God is with not
only ancient people and facts, but prophecies that are being fulfilled
right before our eyes.
The Old Testament is filled with "type and
shadow deliverers," such as Moses, Joshua, Gideon, Sampson and the
like. Their lives and testimonies all reflect the then promised
Messiah. After the birth and ministry of Christ was chronicled in the
New Testament, we can see how that the very lives of these men foretold
our Deliverer to come, Jesus Christ.
In fact, every event told,
every life portrayed in the Old Testament is a reflection of everything
that is to come. The Passover lamb slain as God's people were
delivered from Egypt's bondage is a reflection of the "Lamb of God which took away the sins of the world" John 1:29. The Feast of Trumpets, or Rosh Hashanah, is a type and shadow of the return of Christ at the "sound of the last trumpet" (1 Corinthians 15:52). The Feast of Tabernacles is indicative of the Millennial Reign of Christ here on earth, and the list goes on.
We
can get "caught up in the moment" (and I do mean moment, because this
life only lasts only a moment compared to eternity) and walk aimlessly
through this life, accomplish nothing that will truly last for eternity,
and the worst part - end up in hell forever - or we can obey God's Word
and search for Him and His truths with all of our heart, receive the
Savior He provided, Jesus Christ, the one who died and paid the penalty
for all of our sins, and receive the wonderful gifts of God for
eternity. It is really that simple - that is why we are here.

Lunar eclipse "blood moon"
The
Word of God makes several references to the appearance of "blood moons"
before the return of the Lord. Jewish rabbis have always known the
Biblical meaning of "blood moon," which refers to a lunar eclipse.
"The
sun shall be turned to darkness (solar eclipse) and the moon into
blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come" Joel 2:31.
"The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the great and notable day of the Lord come" Acts 2:20.
"And
I beheld when He had opened the sixth seal and, lo, there was a great
earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair and the moon
became as blood" Revelation 6:12.
Prophetic evangelist Perry Stone, author and host of the Manna Fest television program, wrote a book in 2009 titled Unusual Prophecies Being Fulfilled, wherein
he points out that there were frequent eclipses during major Jewish
feast days and important historical events that occurred in Israel
throughout history. I have noted some excerpts from his book as
follows:
"Pastor Mark Blitz of El Shaddai Ministries in Bonney
Lake, Washington, has done the following research on the link between
the eclipses and the feasts."
These blood moons were seen in 1493-94, after the Jews had been expelled from Spain and Columbus discovered new land:
April 2, 1493: Passover
September 25, 1493: Tabernacles
March 22, 1494: Passover
September 15, 1494: Tabernacles
The same pattern of lunar eclipses occurred after Israel was reestablished as a nation in 1948:
April 13, 1949: Passover
October 7, 1949: Tabernacles
April 2, 1950: Passover
September 26, 1950: Tabernacles
More lunar eclipses occurred in the years 1967-68, surrounding the Six Day War between Israel and the Arab nations:
April 24, 1967: First day of Passover
October 18, 1967: First day of Tabernacles
April 13, 1968: First day of Passover
October 6, 1968: First day of Tabernacles
Perry
Stone wrote that in 1996, the lunar eclipse occurred on both Passover
and Tabernacles. This has happened a total of seven times on both of
these feasts from 1 AD to 1996. The 7th series of lunar eclipses
happened in 1996 and the 8th series will occur between 2014 and 2015.
All
of the following are lunar eclipses on Passover and the Feast of
Tabernacles, except for the solar eclipses noted within. It is
noteworthy that the Word of God tells us that "the sun will turn to
darkness and the moon into blood before the great and notable day of the Lord" (Joel 2:31; Acts 2:20).
April 15, 2014: First day of Passover (Lunar eclipse)
April 29, 2014: (Solar eclipse)October 8, 2014: First day of Tabernacles (Lunar eclipse)
October 23, 2014 (Solar eclipse)
March 20, 2015: (Solar eclipse)
April 4, 2015: First day of Passover
September 13, 2015: (Solar eclipse)
September 28, 2015: First day of Tabernacles
Historically, when on these past seven sets of four lunar eclipses occurred on the Jewish feast days, something great and notable happened.
If this set is not indicative of the return of the Lord, it is
certainly leading to a great prophetic event, such as the impending
"Gog/Magog" war spoken of in Ezekiel 38-39, which is a description of
the coming war between Russia and her allies against Israel. The
"catching up of the saints," described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18
is certain to be drawing very near. Right after Ezekiel prophesies of
the Gog/Magog war in chapters 38-39, he goes on to write in chapters
40-42 of the rebuilding of the Temple of God, then chapters 43-48
describe the Millennial Reign of God's kingdom on earth for one thousand
years. We are very close!
If you are interested in seeing just how infrequently these series of eclipses occur, you can visit the NASA page of lunar eclipses for the years 2011 - 2020.
