concerning
the antichrist and his false prophet
Matthew 24 : 4,
5 and 11 "Take heed that no man deceive
you"
"We all like the thought of approaching
some oracle that will make up our minds for us, painlessly, tell
us what to do without our having to think"
Well, that is an illusion. But so is
ploughing on regardless, head down, oblivious to what is ahead ----Peter

"The Bible says that the most
powerful weapon in the antichrist's arsenal is deception.
Through deception, he seizes control of the global power base. He
deceives Israel into a false peace covenant.
He deceives the world into worshipping him as a god. Ultimately,
he deceives them right into a battle with the forces of Jesus
Christ Himself at the Battle of Armageddon.
"And as He sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came
unto Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?
and what shall be the sign of Thy coming, and of the end of the
world? "
"And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no
man deceive YOU." (Matthew 24:3-4)

THE 2 BEASTS
"Beast" has
the connotation of being arbitrary ( unreasonable ) and it also
connotes one without a conscience. Beasts have no conscience, and
predator-beasts have no mercy.
The 2 Beasts mentioned in the Last Days are the anti-Christ and
the False Prophet.
These two political men are described for us in Revelation Chapter 13.
The
First Beast : The Antichrist Psuedo-Christ ;
False Messiah
Characteristics www.raptureme.com/resource/ac46.html
"The Antichrist feigns the fulfillment of prophecies
concerning Jesus in the Bible, yet he opposes the redemptive
theology of the Lamb Jesus ( forgiveness of sin through the shed
blood of Jesus). And antichrist opposes Jesus' followers, since
we Bible-believing Christians witness to the fact that there is
no other Name given under heaven whereby we must be saved.
And that Name is Jesus, the second Person of the Trinity."
First, we will look at the references to the anti-Christ found in
Rev. 13:1-10.
We notice that:
*he comes up out of the sea" (of
chaos ..... economic turmoil, war,
?)
Quote on this subject :
" Here are two chief
characteristics of tyrants.
The first is they come to power during times of chaos and
anarchy. When the traditions and rules that hold
together the invisible framework of social
stability collapse, the tyrant seized his moment. We
humans so yearn for predictability in our lives that even if it
is offered by someone odious and suspect, we will often embrace
it. Freedom run amok can be far more frightening to ordinary
folks trying to raise their families and feed them than the
cartoon figure with the moustache who insists on total power
in order to restore our lives to the normality of our nostalgia."
" The second characteristic of tyrants is they dominate the
epoch within their cultures. They demand and obtain a worship of
personality. Statues, parades and rallies are only symbolic of
the total authority they exercise over their people."
Rabbi Daniel Lapin
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=36187 --- December 17, 2003
*he has 7 heads ( he is the leader over the G
-7 wealthy industrialized democratic nations;
*he has 10 horns ( he is leader over 10 countries…......like the EU, when restructured)
*there are 10 crowns (10 Prime Ministers) over each of the 10
countries; each nation keeps its leader. The EU never becomes a
single entity, but always remains fragmented into 10 pieces. The
Bible says that "they recieve one hour with the beast, but
receive no kingdom" Rev. 17:12
1. The anti-Christ beast is described as a leopard,
meaning:
comes up swiftly; also meaning over the Arab
nations. (also over the third world)
2. He has feet as the feet of a bear, meaning:
powerful; and also he has the Soviet bloc
under toe (Russia and the CIS States, affiliates)
3. He has the mouth of a lion, meaning:
forceful; and from a Western Democratic,
English-speaking nation. He is over the West.
4. "And the dragon (Satan) gave him his power (occultic, demonic)
and his seat (world
wide governance)
and great authority (
unprecedented political, economic-commercial power ).
Satan is able to give the Beast world governance for Satan is the
"god of this world"
2 Corinthians. 4:4
"All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them:
[kingdoms of this world]
for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will, I give
it.
If thou therefore wilt worship me [obey] , all shall be thine" Luke
4:6,7
He SITS
in the Temple as God... 2 Thessalonians 2 :4
What seat does the dragon give him ? The answer is given in the
following verse:
"Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called
God, or that is worshipped;
so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God showing
himself that he is God." 2 Thess. 2:4
Could it be that when the man of sin sits on the newly recovered "mercy seat" (Ark of
the covenant)
showing himself as God ( 2 Thessalonians 2:4)
that at the same time as that blasphemy is committed, Satan will
enter into him, having been just cast out of the second-heaven to
earth ? (Revelation
12:9....Luke 10:18)
"Now you know what witholdeth, that he (the man of sin ) might be revealed in his time."
2 Thess. 2:6
Please see all of 2 Thessalonians 2
Ark of
the Covenant ..... Mercy Seat
Satan has always wanted to be like the Most High. Isaiah 14:14.
The one thing Satan can never imitate or counterfeit of God is
God's MERCY. Satan has NO MERCY. Therefore he covets the glory
derived from Mercy. Satan covets sitting upon the Mercy Seat
since it was the place of God's glory.
Today the re-discovered mercy seat is but a hollow form of the
true reality.
"they shall
say no more,"The ark of the covenant of the LORD:neither
shall it come to mind, neither shall they remember it, neither
shall they visit it; neither shall that be done anymore"
JEREMIAH 3:16
All relics are idolatrous for they get our eyes off of
Jesus and unto objects....like today's Ark of the Covenant (mercy
seat)
or even the Shroud of Turin.
www.bible.org/docs/pastor/seasonal/easter/shroud.htm
www.execulink.com/~wblank/shroud.htm
"Little children, keep yourselves from idols." 1 John 5:21
Perhaps Satan will enter into the man of sin just as the
Scriptures told of Satan entering into Judas (John 13:27) on the night he betrayed our Lord.
Both of these two men then share the distinction of being called
"the son of perdition" for that very fact.....
they surrendered their all to the evil one and betrayed our Lord.
John 17:12 and 2
Thess. 2:3
Global
Powers
Now as we said earlier Satan, the dragon, gives all power to his
man, the antichrist.
We see then that the South, North and West of the globe are under
the anti-Christ.
Why aren't the far East nations mentioned here ? (China, India,
Indonesia etc.)
Please see:
Eurasian
Alliance http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=15218
Strategic
Triangle
http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=16882
The Far East will be allied Commercially, (trade agreements) but
will never really be allied politically, we believe.
Because the East is allied commercially, they too will have to
receive the 666 mark of the beast for world trade (buying and
selling, importing and exporting).
That alone puts them under the dominion of the antichrist. They
will have to abide by his rules of trade.
ECONOMIC
WOUND
"And I saw one of his heads (1 of the economic G7 heads ) AS
it were wounded unto death; and his deadly wound was
healed……
It appears then that one of the G-7 democracies undergoes one of
the following:
1. a computer problem impacting their stock market (Japan?)
2. a NYSE market crash impacting all financial markets?
3. a devaluation of the dollar ? a switch to the Euro?
4. Trade deficits so large that it necessitates switching over to
a
new system of eliminating 3rd world debts...the "Jubilee
2000" scheme, endorsed by global religion.
Eventually all financial problems will be dealt with by switching
over to a "cashless system"....dealing with virtual
"units", rather than firm figures.
(manipulative)
This economic crash is only temporary. It is remedied quickly,
for it says :
"and all the world wondered after the beast".
Now if one country is fixed, yet the whole world admires this fix
, then the "fix" must be impacted globally. This could
possibly mean a change over in our economic system to a cashless
society. It could also mean a time of great prosperity for
everyone.
That could be the economic wound and the quick healing.
3
Different Wounds to take place :
Actually, "wound" is mentioned 3 times in Rev. 13……
1. Economic wound [ 1 of the G-7 heads]….then quickly healed
Rev. 13:3
2. Political wound…Rev.13:12….major
political comeback….healed (Rev. 17:11)
3. Physical wound [ a feigned death, not real] Rev. 13:14 "and did live".
Though antichrist is physically wounded,
he feigns death and "resurrection" in order to mock and
equate the death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth. This act
is aimed at demolishing Faith in the cornerstone of Christianity:
the Atoning death and Resurrection of Yeshua Jesus.
The Beast seeks to "fulfill", by mock imitation, all
the Messianic Scriptures, including the wounding for our
transgressions. What audacity. What a usurper. What blasphemy .
The Beast kingdom here on earth can not promise Eternal Life like
Jesus can, so they pretend that we can live eternally through
"clones"
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/9.02/projectx.html
Military
Superiority
"And they worshipped the dragon (Satan)", and the beast
who (along with the False Prophet) have far superior military
powers than all the other nations . Since there are many nations
with conventional, biological-chemical warfare, and even nuclear
warfare, the difference here is not in weaponry, but rather in
satellite technology….Theater-war fought from the
skies…star-wars.
Western surveillance and technology gives the beast the advantage
he needs. ( Iridium, Echelon, GPS, Milstar, Navstar,
Galileo)….
Will the
Antichrist have the lead role over NATO
forces ?
Will the False Prophet have the lead role over the UN
multinational forces ?
Then, together they will control the armies of the world.
Will the " two horns
as a lamb " represent the leader over a major country ......
plus leadership over the
UN multinational forces ?
"who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with
him?"

Al
Gore, Prince Charles almost-Holograms -- Dec. 27, 2007 "ghosting"
[ Prince] Charles recorded the message at Highgrove last
month. It will be transformed into a hologram-style image using
technology based on a Victorian music-hall technique called "ghosting".
A video projector will beam an image of the Prince on to the
floor.
It is then reflected up on to a paper-thin sheet of foil to
create an optical illusion that makes him
appear as a 3-D image on stage.
Former US Vice-President Al Gore
used similar technology to appear as a hologram at Wembley
Stadium at the beginning of the Live Earth concerts earlier this
year
The Prince wore a light-coloured suit to film the speech -
if he had worn dark clothes, only his head would be visible.
He will be seen standing, making gestures and moving around the
stage.
The video is not a true hologram
as you cannot see different parts of the image by moving around.

Biblical Identification
The antichrist beast reigns for 42 months ( 3 and a half years).
This period of time is known as "The Great
Tribulation", Matthew
24:21
or The Time of Jacob's Trouble Jeremiah 30:7
The beast has not the love of women..."nor the desire of
women". ( Daniel 11:37)
All women in society will be regarded the same as men. Same work,
no benefits from marital status.
Already the EU is trying to have a unisex society. This greatly
tears down respect for women, though the EU claims this will keep
them from stereotyping. The final results will be devastating.
Note how it is already be applied to insurance premiums:
EU legislates on stereotyping of sexes, outside of the
workplace-- June 24, 2003
http://www.euobserver.com/index.phtml?aid=11839
also at
Financial Times:
The draft, seen by the Financial Times, would cover
education, welfare
benefits and even
areas of national tax policy.
Perhaps the biggest effect would be on the insurance industry
where gender is often used to calculate risk. Under the proposal,
women could end up paying more for car insurance but less
for health insurance. Retirement annuities,
which are paid on a higher annual rate for men because of their
shorter life expectancy, would be equalised.

The beast, anti-Christ, is totally blasphemous and without
conscience. He has no fear of God, nor man. He
desecrates God's holy name and titles. He usurps those titles
unto himself. He mocks God flagrantly and sacrilegiously. He
blasphemes the dwelling place of God . He character- assassinates
Believers who have passed on to heaven (whether by death or
rapture.)
No opposition can withstand him. And
even though the saints who are here on earth oppose him, they are
worn out during his reign of terror:
"It was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome
them". Rev.
13:7
"and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed
against them" Dan.
7:21
"And he shall speak great words against the Most High, and
shall wear out the saints of the Most High,
and think to change times and laws."
Dan. 7:25
God's
Greater Superiority .....
"in the midst"
Does this mean that God cannot help us in these Last Days? No.
God can deliver anyone, anywhere, anytime---and under any
circumstance.
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day and for
ever." Hebrews
13:8
Deliverance in those days will be the million miracles that happen
in behalf of our welfare while in the midst of
tribulation. And the greatest miracle of all will be the grace to
endure and eventually to face martyrdom boldly and gladly. Those
are the greatest miracles of all.
Hebrews 13:8 www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/sparo.html
www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/JJ.html
Those who have been raptured are delivered OUT, because of their
emphatic, demonstrative, professed Faith. [like Elijah... 2 Kings 2] Those who held back until choices had to be
made, will be delivered THROUGH….even through death. Isaiah 43:2
God delivers no matter what ! In, out, up, down, through and
inside-out; Yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever, our God
delivers. He delivered the Jews IN the
Holocaust ovens Daniel
3.
"When thou
walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall
the flame kindle upon thee".
Isaiah 43:2 .One either believes that or not. We believe it
!
He has promised never to leave us nor forsake us !
(Hebrews13:5) "so that we may boldly say….
"the Lord is my Helper, and I will not fear what
man shall do unto me"Hebrews 13:6.
We can go through death unscathed, crossing over beforehand.
You either believe that or you don't. We believe that ! See: BE NOT AFRAID
"The worst that man can do to us, is to put us into the
Presence of God"
What about torture ? "Where sin abounds, grace does more
abound." Romans 5:20
God never allows us to be tried beyond what we can endure:
1 Corinthians 10:13 ; Isaiah 28:27-29 ; Psalm 18:25, 26; 1 Peter
4:12,13; Isaiah 41:10 + 14;
Isaiah 43:1-3 ; Hebrews 2:18 (
"tempted" and "tried" have the same meaning)
All
Sufficient Grace
Unrepentant sinners die. Repentant Believers never
die, "believest
thou this?"John 11:25, 26
Believers cross-over at the time of their earthly parting; they
do not die as non-believers do. Again, you either believe this or
you don't.
Even though Death cannot touch us, suffering can.
"yea and all those that live Godly shall suffer
persecution" 2
Timothy 3:12
The primary meaning of "suffer" is to
"endure". In other words, abiding grace comes
alongside of the persecution, enabling us to endure,
or suffer. We are not standing on our own grit. We are
undergirded by the mighty graces of God.
And He is more than able to walk us through.
A perfect love casts out fear, and also greatly reduces
suffering.
"My grace is sufficient" 2 Corinthians 12:9
We are
to "fear none of those things which thou SHALT suffer" (undergo)
Rev. 2:10; 3:10 "which shall come upon all the world". Rev. 3:10
The Antichrist Beast requires an imbedded chip
for allegiance
and for all financial transactions
**He has power over all nations. Even though the
Far East is only resigned to his power, the East is under his
sway. China, for financial reasons only, co-operates with the
System in order to be in the World Trade Organization (WTO). She
is compliant in business and economic concerns, but it ends
there. Her cessation will be evident at Armageddon.
**Worship (focus and compliance) will be given to
this first Beast world-wide.
Will we be asked to endorse his movements ?

Those who refuse will be martyred (beheaded, Rev. 20:4 ) These martyrs are already written into the
Lamb-Jesus' Book of Life. They are redeemed,
and NO ONE CAN PLUCK THEM OUT OF HIS HAND [John 10:28, 29]
No one can make them give their allegiance to anyone else but
King-Jesus, no one, as long as they keep themselves in the love and obedience of God.
Romans 8:38, 39].
The 666 mark is REQUIRED for ALL. www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/ch1p1.html
People will either willingly take it, or else not take it at all,
giving up their life. (starvation and martyrdom). One will not be
able to interact with society, if one decides not to take the
imbedded chip. It is required of ALL, for all. Yet all will not
take it.
"Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill
the soul. But rather
fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in
hell" ....spoken
by Jesus ---Matthew 10:28
This time of Great Tribulation will be unlike any other time in
history
Daniel 12:1 Mark
13:19
"And ye shall be hated of all men for
My name's sake" Matt. 10:22; Mark13:13;Luke 21:17
Many good and righteous people will be imprisoned, captured and
relocated, parted from loved ones, sent into work camps and
slavery etc.…all of this is referred to in the word
"captivity".
Rev. 13:10 and
"prison" Rev.
2:10
Notice the segregated work camps (male, female) in Luke 17: 34-36
Many will be slain for opposing the system or the establishment.
"Here is the patience and the faith of the saints" Rev. 13:10b "
Ye shall be hated of all men for My Name's sake
(for being a Christian…politically-incorrect)
but he that endures to the end (of his life) shall be saved" Matt. 10:22".
If you surrender your life here, you get it all there, a
hundredfold…. becoming God's son and inheriting all things. Rev. 21:7
It's worth it. Otherwise the only alternative is an eternity in a
real hell of unending torment forever. Think it through.
If you're wise, hang in there to the end. Jesus is well worth the
wait---
whatever it is that we must go through to get to Him.
That, in sum, is what Rev. 13: 1-10
says about the beast anti-Christ.
DANIEL
7, 8, 9, and 11
More about the antichrist can be found in Daniel 7: 7-28.
"And he shall speak great words against
the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and
think to change times and laws".....Daniel
7:25
Changing Times: BCE /
CE instead of BC and AD
COMMON ERA:Proposed centuries ago as a solution to the
AD/BC system's lack of a year zero, the common-era system has
more recently been embraced as a politically correct alternative
to a dating system based on the life of Jesus - even though
"common era" has often been used as a synonym of
Christian.
In marking calendar years, the terms CE and BCE are often used in
place of AD and BC. The trend is common in academic texts,
especially in anthropology, where it is the accepted style
http://www.nationalpost.com/search/site/story.asp?id=CB9B0D3E-ACFA-4C09-8D99-301B4ECA6BAC
The beast here is described as being ferociously powerful, yet
easily disposed of by Jesus Christ at Armageddon, at the end of
the 3 1/2 years of the Great tribulation (Daniel 7:11).
Not only will our Lord conquer the
Beast, but the saints also will personally return in victory [ Jude 14,15; Dan. 7:18 and 27;
Rev. 19:14] When this is
accomplished, History will have cleansed itself of the
deception.... that man can rule apart from God.
Daniel 8 tells us that the antichrist Beast will extend
his rule far and wide, and will even cast down nations already
under powers and principalities of the host of heaven.(nations
under certain demons)
Daniel 8:10. His audacity in the spirit-realm even tries to
impress the prince of that host,
Satan himself (since antichrist is so successful in destroying
any appearance of God upon earth.)
Demonic forces will be given over exclusively to the antichrist
to cast down TRUTH. Can anything stand in the way, once truth is
gone? No.
His lies will work. They will prosper. They will bear fruit. The
ears of the people will long to hear those lies.
Antichrist will destroy "wonderfully" Dan. 8:24. He shall cause craft (cleverness, as well as
witchcraft) to prosper. Please
see "Witchcraft" www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/craft.html
By peace he shall destroy many. He will actually seek to destroy
Jesus Christ at His return to earth, Dan. 8:25. This is truly outlandish. "yet he shall be
broken without hand". Jesus won't even have to lift a
finger.
SHIELDING PLANET EARTH FROM ITS CREATOR
NMD....Nuclear-Missile-Defence..."Star Wars"
In the movie "Deep Impact", space-scientists were
frantically trying to make a "killer-interceptor" that
would destroy any exoatmoshperic objects (meteors, comets,
asteroids).
And Vandenburg AirForce Base outside the L.A. Basin just this
weekend
(October 2, 1999) sucessfully deployed a "killer
interceptor" missile (star wars type...SDI) over the
Marshall Islands.
While meteors and missiles are the so-called object of these
interceptors, is not the real (though unreasonable) object the
thwarting of the return of Jesus Christ to planet earth? Think
that's far-out?? Well go back to the movie"Deep
Impact",
and notice that the name of the inteceptor is
"Messiah".
ABOMINABLE ARMY THAT DESOLATES
In Daniel
Chapter 9:27 we are told that
antichrist makes a covenant with Israel that is to her disadvantage for the remaining 3
1/2 years. We are also told that antiChrist makes Jerusalem
desolate, meaning without an inhabitant.
Since Jesus says in Matthew
24 that the abomination of
desolation, appearing in Jerusalem, initiates the last 3 1/2
years, then we can deduce that antichrist will bring into the
city a military force that will exterminate every "foe"
found in her walls. Unless of course they have escaped by the
mighty hand of God, who will provide for them for 3 1/2 years (Rev. 12:14). They will only know to do this if they are
reading the New Testament. "Flee"
Matthew.
24:16-18. See also Daniel 12:1b.See
Elusive Dove"
Dan. 11:20--45 goes on to relate the political ploys,
intrigues, lies and flatteries of the antichrist beast . Yet even
at this time, "the people that do know their God will be
strong and do (spiritual) exploits" Dan. 11:32.
Eventually, even these people will be captured and killed
(martyred)
"yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by
captivity and by spoil (deprivations, confiscation of property
and possessions) many days."
Dan. 11:33
The utter depravity and blasphemy of the beast is described in Dan. 11:36-37. The only god he worships is himself and his
might…. "the god of forces".
"And a god whom his father knew not
(satellite-laser-warfare…star wars) shall he
honor…."Thus shall he do in the most strong holds
(computer war-rooms, bunkers ) with a strange god (demonic technology).
"Yet he shall come to his end and none shall help him" Dan. 11:45.
He will die unaided, unwept, and unsung. What a horrible end.
This is confirmed in Revelation 19:20.
Daniel
11:38 ...worshipping Technology
"and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold
and silver, and with precious stones (ruby
lasers etc.), and pleasant things
Nanotechnology : gold and silver
Designing new materials with otherwise unattainable
properties, sometimes referred to as "metamaterials,"
is one of the promises of nanotechnology. Two-dimensional
patterns had previously been created from gold
nanoparticles of different sizes and mixtures of
gold and silver. Extending this concept to three
dimensions with more diverse types of materials demonstrates the
ability to bring more materials together than previously realized

Space vehicles
The 494-kilo (1,000-pound) spacecraft used hexagonal
wafers of silicon, gold, sapphire and diamond
to capture 10 to 20 micrograms of the invisible bits of solar
wind. The samples were the first returned to Earth from outside
the moon's orbit, and the first samples of any kind returned to
Earth since the final Apollo mission to the moon in 1972.

TIMING
Many people wonder if the Church will be here to see antichrist
(AC) arise. We will see him arise as the man of sin sitting in
the temple as God (2
Thessalonians 2:1--12) but we
will most likely be gone by the time he becomes the antichrist
world ruler.
That is what Paul relates in 2 Thessalonians Chapter 2.
In this passage Paul tells us that we can not go in the Rapture
until we witness the Apostasy or "Falling Away" within
the Church;
and that we will see the "man of
sin"sit in the temple showing (demonstrating) himself to be
God.
(Will he be sitting on a newly found Ark of the Covenant Lid,
thereby manifesting blasphemy?)
Will this be in the Holy of Holies site beneath the Temple...the
secret chamber??...
When it comes to pass, we are to "believe it not" Matthew 24:26 ....meaning there is no relevance any more to
the Ark of the Covenant (Jeremiah 3:16)
At this time Paul tells us that the antichrist Beast will oppose
something. Most likely it will be three things in particular:
1. He will oppose God.... The Triune-Indivisible (3 in 1) God:
Father , Son and Holy Ghost.
He will especially disqualify Jesus as Messiah and replace
himself in that role.
2. He will oppose Israel, for he now breaks his covenant with them
(Dan. 9:27).....
3. And he most likely will oppose nuclear-militarism, in his role as "Prince of Peace"
( 'Tzar of Peace'= 666 in Hebrew ?)
Yet on his last day on planet earth, it will be AC himself who
detonates world-wide conflagration.....he is a living-oxymoron.
Many Jewish people believe in a political messiah, anyone who can
give them peace at any price. So, many will hail this man.
However, many will not. They know the real Messiah, from the
usurper.
Perhaps there will be someone who retaliates against this
blasphemy of sitting on the Ark (the mercy seat) and wounds the
AC. Or else a "lying wonder" may take place wherein the
AC appears to be wounded unto death....Rev. 13:14 "sword" means "weapon".
Of this death scenario we are to believe it not. This lying
wonder has a grand finale---an apparent coming back to life
again....... "believe it not".
We have been told of this event beforehand. We are to watch for
it, know that it is a hoax, and "believe it not".Please
see "I'm No Fool" ...."Lying
With Pixels"
(digital-deception).
The anti-Christian society will say that the concept of
Resurrection then, is merely one's personal belief...not
necessarily fact, since Christians choose not to believe this AC
lying wonder. But our hearts know truth from lies. Hebrews 8:11
DIGITIZATION
We also are quite aware of the "special effects" age we
live in....how ployful our age is. Images today, whether on TV,
Internet or photos, are highly manipulative...can be easily
altered and changed due to digitization.
"Digit-imagery" is the ultimate in "divide and
conquer"...the old Roman bromide. Divide an image on TV,
Internet or any picture into pixels....manipulate the pixels by
size color, addition, subtration or magnification and the altered
image passes for real. The ultimate in deception! We can no
longer trust our eyes to visual imagery.
One takes an image, slices it infinitesimally into
"dots"......then replaces any dots so desired, until
the image becomes a lying wonder...a LIE...not the true image at
all. We must not believe everything we see in electronics. (TV,
Internet, photos, holograms etc.) or even what we hear (digitized
audio)
Anything from the past can be retrieved, digitized and
revisioned, or resounded. We can no longer trust the media.
Perhaps this is what our Lord meant when He said that when He
comes back, will He find faith (trust) on the earth?(Luke 18)

FRAUD
We are aware of the intense hatred Satan and the AC have against
Jesus Christ and his bodily resurrection. (ArchBishop Carey
denying Jesus' Resurrection by casting doubt)
We are not surprised then that they try to imitate a resurrection
so readily.
Holy Ghost-led hearts are wiser than the System and their
digital-appearances and special effects.
But this is the age of deception and God tells us that He will
turn non-believers over to a delusion, for not having loved the
truth.
Many will fall for this charade:
"And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion,
that they should believe a lie:
That they might be damned who believed not the truth, but had
pleasure in unrighteousness (sin)" 2 Thess. 2:12
The truth that new agers (w.jeremiahproject.com/prophecy/newage01.html) deny is that
Jesus as God came to earth, lived as a man, proclaimed the gospel
of forgiveness of sins through His shed Blood, died a
substitutionary death on Calvary and rose alive again 3 days
later, and lives forever more.
He is the fulfillment of FirstFruits (Bikkurim) at the exact
timing given in
Daniel Ch. 9:26. "cut off".
There is no excuse not to believe in Jesus Christ and all that
pertains to Him.
Please see Annie's page
documenting the Scriptural Messianic prophecies that Jesus
fulfilled in His lifetime
www.annieshomepage.com/fulfillment.html
And there is every reason to deny the false ploys of the
politically advantageous. (usurpers)
LEVIATHAN http://www.dabar.org/JOB/Leviathan.html
STRONG DELUSION--- 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11
Both the AC and the FP will try to undermine the resurrection of
Jesus Christ and His singular promise of everlasting life by
endorsing scientific manipulations ...."lying wonders"
"Methuselah"
telomerase -- longer life, youth
restored ?
But scientists from Geron
Corporation and the University
of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas showed
in the lab that by adding the enzyme telomerase to human
cells, they could make them into little Eveready Bunnies. They
just kept on dividing and dividing
Later they stunned the scientific community when they showed that
telomerase
restored the youth of aging human skin tissue that had
been attached to the backs of mice. Consider that as you
celebrate your 100th birthday you could have skin that's as clear
and smooth as the proverbial "baby's behind" -- without
the diaper rash.

While some of the above information is valid .... and
while it is true that one's life-span will greatly increase
during the LORD's millennium, it is also true that facts can be
falsified in this age of "special effects" and
dis-information. Manipulation has an end.
God's ways are infinite, and beyond our understanding.

Interactive TV for voting
-- Feb. 25, 2008
'DialogueTV', a sophisticated experiment in online video and interactive web TV.
The new channel aims to exploit the increasing popularity of
video clips on the internet to outreach to citizens ahead of the
2009 European parliamentary elections...
Dialogue TV is the first stand-alone webTV channel with a
dedicated staff and news
presenters...
Antonio Lopez-Isturiz, EPP [ European People's
Party; centre-Right ] secretary-general.
Initially the subjects will focus on climate
change, immigration, security, demographic change and the digital
economy.
"Most of the political groupings in the
parliament have been experimenting with these new technologies in
order to reach out to a wider audience, not just online video,
but audio – such as podcasting – too,"

BLOOD SPORTS --- Huge Adrenalin Rush
"To some, MMA is a dangerous, brutal and
often bloody street fight. It is banned in many U.S. states and
several provinces, including Ontario
But to supporters it is a human chess match
between two trained athletes: man-to-man competition at its
finest with roots in the ancient Olympics. [ Ed: or Roman
Coliseum ]
"It's just a huge adrenalin rush,"
says Guelph's Dave Merkley, an MMA [ Mixed Martial Arts ] fan who
made the six-hour drive to Columbus for the last Ultimate
Fighting Championship card. Not only was it sold out on fight
night, there were also 5,000 people in the stands the night
before to watch the competitors weigh in.
The cable television reality show
Ultimate Fighter provided a huge boost in popularity.
Today: Just over 19,000 fans attended the last big fight card in
Ohio. Pay-per-view buys now rival or surpass those of major
boxing cards. It's also popular in Japan and an upcoming UFC card
will be held in England."
