Lk:21:26-28:
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
If one has any kind of faith or value in Bible prophecy, it would seem only natural to conclude that an event as big, important and significant as 9/11 would certainly be mentioned.
Isa:30: 25-28
25: “And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall."
26: "Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun,” (The moon is the ruler of the night, it has no light of its own but it appears as though it has light. Notice here the prophet is saying that people will believe that the ruler of darkness will be as the Sun. The values of the wicked one will be thought of as good. This is what we see in our world today. Those that worship the God Mammon, the rich and famous are IDOLized openly instead of seeing them as the corruption that they are). "and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound." (This is what is yet to come)
27-28: "Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire: And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.”
Many see the corruption, but don’t want to rock the boat, or put themselves in danger. It is like there is a “BRIDLE” in there mouth. They don’t want to loose their high power job in the government. As a result, they are forced to lie and twist the truth. Lk:9:24: “For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.”
When we look at the Bible, It is very important that we first understand that it is to be expected that it would be hard to understand at times. This should not however detour us from hungering to learn. 2Pt:3:16: “As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable twist, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.” As with any growth process it takes time, and one must begin with the milk of the scripture. 1Pt:2:2: “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” Unfortunately that is where most of Christendom has remained; as babes. Then as babes they endeavor to eat meat, and choke.
Heb:5:14: "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”Notice what happens as a result of having your spiritual senses exercised. You are able to discern good and evil. This may explain why so many are completely oblivious to the EVIL that has gripped this country. The so called Church is just a man made institution that is no different in its values than the world. Like the Great Whore she commits fornication with the Kings of the earth. This speaks of the mingling of the Religious with the Political. They are both corrupt and polluted. Ezek:34:2-4:
“Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks? Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock. The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them”.Men like Falwell, Robertson, Dobson and Lindsey have become very rich feeding on the sheep and teaching them that gain is Godly. 1Tm:6:5: “Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.”
I say these things so you can begin to understand the state of our society and world. If you read the Bible you must come away with the idea that there is a time line. This world began in time and space, and all is awaiting its culmination. “The Return of the King” Rom:8:22-23:
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.People think that things will always just keep going along the same. They say they believe in the return of Christ but “not in my life time” or they think they will be raptured out before any tribulation or the Antichrist is revealed.
Lk:12:56:
“Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?”(see my post on “The Day of The Lord”).
In order to see the hand of God at work, or hear His voice it is of utmost importance that we understand this VERY IMPORTANT PRINCIPAL!! In the movie “V for Vendetta” there is a line where “V” says “THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A COINCIDENCE Only the illusion of coincidence.” If one opens their eyes to this fact, much more understanding will take place. This is not to say that we should get bogged down trying to understand what everything means, but just to know that there are no accidents. It is like you have all of a sudden AWAKENED. God is Omnipotent.
The enemy has heralded his coming for a long time. The evidence has been in our face, but because we don’t see the hand of God at work, we are blinded. We are caught up in the love of this world and its systems. We think that the alters of Baal were just Old Testament, but Baal actually represents all of the false gods. The problem seems to be that we “can’t see the forest for the trees”. 2Cor:4:4: “In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” Remember I had said in another post that Christ is God making himself man; Antichrist is man making himself God.
For about 40 years in the heart of the symbol and height of mans achievement, New York City, the belly of capitalism, stood a large nondescript building. It was the only building that had its address displayed across the top in huge red numbers, the number 666. Nobody noticed anything. Some may have made jokes, but no one could see that this was not a joke.
Rv:13:18: “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six”. This was a proclamation heralding the coming of the Beast. There it sat on Fifth Avenue for all those years and people ignored it. They were too busy worshiping at the temple of Saks, Tiffany and Bergdorf’s. Even the humble church goers in the farm lands wished that they too could worship at those alters of Baal. Was it possible that God was telling the believer to wake up? Naw can’t be; this was all just a coincidence. Remember that we are taught that the subtle nature of the deceptions would be so great that “if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
Even John when he looked at the Wonders of the Whore in Rev.17:6 it says “I wondered with great admiration. 7: And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel?”
So pervasive is this new Rome, This NEW WORLD ORDER, that it completely veils mans ability to see the Kingdom of God. What is it that is so compelling? Why are we so taken and deceived? All men seek to feel safe and secure. We want to be happy and enjoy peace, so the lie of The New World Order sounds good to some. Then we will have the brotherhood of man. Unfortunately this can not work without the Fatherhood of God.
God created us for himself, so any attempt to find satisfaction or peace out side of God’s will is futile. Mankind has been enslaved since the garden by the Dark Lord. We gave our inheritance over to him. When people think “Well there have always been wars, the rich have always oppressed the poor and exploited them” That is certainly true, because we have all been living in a fallen creation. When Jesus was in the wilderness and was tempted by the Devil in , Lk:4: 5-8:
“And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. (This would include America) And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.” Notice Jesus didn’t deny that it was Satan’s to give but rather said “And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."Paul tells us that Satan is the God of this world. He is the spirit that the world worships. 2Cor:4:4: “In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” The enemy and his demons have influenced all of mans institutions and have made us think only in a material way, never seeing the spiritual. Eph:6:12: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Hopefully I am getting across the point that things are not always as they appear. Heb:11:3: “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.”Now let us look at what actually happen on that fateful day of September 11, 2001. Hopefully by now most of you have done the research and know that 9/11 was not terrorists with box cutters. This was a planed event from the highest levels of government. If you are unfamiliar with this then please do your homework. I encourage you to visit the website "Question 9-11" and download some of the films, or go to 911truth.org, or just Google video 911 conspiracy to find out more. These are just the beginning of exposing the occult Satanic control that has been running the world systems through out all of world history.
Ancient societies worshiped many different variations of the same Demon gods.Moloch was a principal deity who is currently worshiped by the very rich and powerful and the leaders of this country, holding annual rituals at Bohemian Grove. America is controlled by secret societies such as the Free Masons, and Skull & Bones, The Council on Foreign Relations, The Bilderburgers, and Illuminati. This is all about power and money. These demons think that Money is power. The Bible tells us in 1Tm:6:10: that “the Love of Money is the root of ALL evil”. They control by deception. The plan being to control the worlds resources, and there by control the people of the earth. This has always been Satan’s plan; to take away the Lords inheritance. 9/11 was just that kind of plan. It was conceived in the pit of Hell; not by Islamic Terrorists but by the Antichrist and his minions themselves. No matter what the enemy does God is always prepared and is several steps ahead. The enemy wants to destroy but the Lord uses him to accomplish His purposes. Gen:50:20: “But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.” Ultimately as a result of these events many will wake up and see His Kingdom.
These events and patters have been foretold and the cycle of prophecy has come around again to its ultimate fulfillment. You have heard the saying that history repeats itself. Prophecy is like that. Many people trying to understand the Book Revelation think it is a book of chronological events, when it is revealing patterns and cycles. Most of the first applications were fulfilled with the Roman Empire. Now we are seeing the patterns again in the New Rome, “The New World Order”. The Book of Daniel also was fulfilled for the most part with the kingdoms of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome; but ultimately the meaning behind the events have been sealed “Until the time of the end” Dan:12:9: “And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.” This is that time of the end, this is that day of the Lord; The beginning of the Seventh day that was heralded by September 11, 2001.
The following verses in Daniel were initially fulfilled speaking of Antiochus Epiphany. Now in these last days are fulfilled in this most probably the final Antichrist George W. Bush. Dan:8: 9-11:
“And out of one of them came forth a little horn, (a Junior.) which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; (This speaks of spiritual involvement. Angels/demons, Bush more than any other has claimed God's authority almost like a cult leader. He had stated that God told him to attack Iraq.) and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.”This prince of the Host is the Ruler of Darkness, The God of this age. Now as far as the daily sacrifice we certainly all know that the sacrifice of animals has long ago stopped as part of Jewish ritual. So what application does this have for us today? What kind of daily sacrifice takes place? When we realize that the God men are worshipping is Mammon then we can see the picture of how these verses apply to us today. –
--This was the 666 building, after it had proclaimed the coming of the Antichrist and he has been revealed to us with 9-11, we can see the God Mammon behind him. Citi, the largest banking enterprise in the world.
The name was changed only months after 9-11
The Great Temple dedicated to this God would represent all his glory; two of the tallest towers in the world. The World Trade Center was representative of the glory of man and his tribute to Trade and Money. Daily there were Billions upon Billions changing hands and under them hundreds of billions in gold. Then when those planes where flown into the buildings and the demolitions took place, He (Bush and his Cabal ) caused the daily sacrifice to be taken away, even the New York Stock Exchange had to stop its trading for almost a week. There was no daily sacrifice (trade); “and the place of his sanctuary was cast down”.
“It cast down some of the host and of the stars (stars represent the saints, they are lights in a dark place. In destroying these buildings he killed almost 3,000 souls some belonged to God and some belonged to the devil.) to the ground, and stamped upon them.” The dead were pulverized and cast to the ground. Then George W Bush went to his crime seen and stood upon there dead bodied (Stamped upon them) lying to us and proclaiming vengeance. In Vs 12: And an host was (multitude, army) given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered.( His popularity rose to the highest of any President).
The way the whole event was covered on the media was an exercise in mass hypnosis.
Immediately the mental suggestions were placed that Osama did it, never providing proof. Then Iraq (Babylon) was tied into it. This all fulfilled another scripture concerning the day we are in as well as who George W Bush is. He is in himself a “Lying wonder”
2Thes:2: 8-12:
“And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, (the spirit of His mouth is The Spirit of Truth, and the Word of God) and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie (This is the condition of the Religious Right, completely deceived, and believing that they somehow deserve to escape the tribulation to come) That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness”. Unrighteousness is centering your life on self, the whole capitalistic system where we are more interested in building our house instead of the Kingdom of God. Gay people got a bad rap over Sodom when this country is living in the sins of Sodom.
- Ezek:16:49: “Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy”.
- Hag:1:9: “Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.”
- Mt:6:20: “But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”
We are living in the most exciting day the world has ever known. The Devil had his two witnesses in the towers. The Kingdom of God is at hand, and He is raising up His “Two Witnesses” Rv:11

Great job, sharing these scriptures and words of Wisdom. It certainly has been a long time since we have been blessed by the writings of Peterz. I, for one am glad to see you back in action.
Kevin "Young Brother"
It is my sincere hope and desire that more people will begin to see and understand the truth and the weight of our present day. This post could do just that. You need to plaster this on posterboards everywhere around the country. Hack into the fake news with it, shout it from the rooftops and break this spell people are so comfortable with.
I would love to hear more about the two witnesses. Some believe it is the Old and New Testaments, but God always is more literal it seems to me.
Thank you for this long awaited post - it was worth the wait. Your wisdom and discernment are much appreciated and God given without a doubt.
Wouldn't it be something to see all the people who are blinded wake up at once and start worshipping the Lord. What a sight that would be....
faithful forever
Wonderful writing and true message Peterz!
These times and events are definitely in the scriptures.
There is only two choices and to continue with Man's way, or choose Our Heavenly Father's way, which is coming in very shortly! Praise Him!
Isaiah 54:14
"In righteousness you will be established; you will be far from oppression, for you will not fear; and from terror, for it will not come near you."
John 14:27
"Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful."
Bless You Peterz.
So what is everybody/anybody's take on the two witnesses? Are they to be literal or are they the Old and New Testaments?
faithful forever
Sue before I answer the "two witness question, I was hoping that it would create some discussion on the board. If I do all the work, people will just look to me to be fed instead if looking to the Lord to teach them. I know I am called to teach but one of the greatest lesions I can teach is to encourage people to search things out for them selves. I will answer the question when there is some discussion about this.
I am still amazed about the Isiah 30:25 verse. I had never read that before or if I did I did not associate it with the WTC towers thinking it must have been some towers from days gone by seeing how it was in the Old Testament.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom.
I hope someone starts soon with discussion regarding the two witnesses....because I'm not sure where to begin and I have been searching and praying for wisdom regarding 'them.'
I know when I was reading the Left Behind series (for entertainment only) the authors showed them to be literal and I have heard discussions about them being John the Baptist and Elijah's spirit reborn, but never really could grasp this. All things are possible with our Lord though.
Still searching....
Sue
and waiting!

I'll give my "two cents" on the two witnesses, but I must confess, that I received this not by my own study of the word, but rather by being led to the writings of 20th century prophet Bill Britton (thanks to PeterZ).
John chapter 8:12-18
Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”
The Pharisees therefore said to Him, “You bear witness of Yourself; Your witness is not true.” Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going. You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one. And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me. It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me.”
later, in John 14-15, Jesus talks plainly to his disciples, because the time of his death has come. This whole segment of John is filled with wonderful promises and instruction.
But when it comes to the identity of the two witnesses, words such as these can help guide us to the glorious truth: "At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you... Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me."
I strongly reccomend reading all three chapters to get the context, and to stay in rememberence of Him who saved us, and who we love.
Thanks so much Kevin. If I had to pick a favorite book of the Bible, it would have to be the book of John. It is the book to me that most reveals our beautiful Savior.
I am still unclear on the two witnesses, however, unless they are the Father and the Son. Which would make absolutely perfect sense.
Thanks again.
I think I got it - THEY are the Father and the Son. What an ephinany.
Sue
This is the passage of brother Bill Britton that I was referring to.
http://www.dimensionsoftruth.org/bill_britton/pattern5.htm His annointing is undoubtably of our Lord. His teachings and writings have beena tremendous blessing in my life. My own view of biblical prophecy is that these things can be understood and revealed in various layers of truth. All within the will of God, and all equally true. Yes, the two witnesses of Christ's time were the Father and the Son, but what I see as the two witnesses of this coming day will be the Son and the Holy Spirit. The holy spirit will manifest within the "body" or "bride" of Christ, and the Son is eternally Christ; our head and our husband. The two become one flesh...that's my view of it, anyway.
Kevin,
Thanks for sharing your wisdom and that website. It is very much appreciated. I am still wanting to believe and feel in my heart that the two witnesses will be literal meaning we will be able to physically see them on this earth. Some people have revealed it will be Moses and Elijah. This is most interesting to me as isn't it believed that John the Baptist was Elijah's spirit reborn?
I have been looking for scripture and if anyone has the verses or knowledge of this I would be most grateful. I am not sure if I have read this, heard someone's discussion or if it is my rememberance that is coming to my mind. Is John the Baptist Elijah's spirit? Where can I read more about Elijah - I am not very familiar with his history.
May God continue to bless us all in our search for His truth.
Love to all.
faithful forever
Kevin,
I have really been enjoying that site of Bill Britton's and just wanted to say thanks again.
Sue
I'm glad you have been enriched by brothe Britton. Reading his work, to me seemed like drinking deep of cool water in a wilderness. The work of Hanchett and our own PeterZ are likewise, oasis pools in a dry desert. Fellowships like these discussion forums are like bread, to nourish and feed a hunger inexpressible. As I bless you, so you most assuredly have blessed me.
Kevin, your kind words lift up my spirit; thank you. I am starting to realize that the two witnesses may be spiritual rather than literal. Still praying and searching. I have always looked forward to having them on earth as a sign from God, but maybe that will not by the prophecy will be fulfilled.
whoops - correction: maybe that will not be the way prophecy will be fulfilled.
Your sister in Christ,

Hi, all
Long time - no see!
I wanted to comment that I find peter's post very interesting.
As I was reading it I was thinking of how what he was writng might have several applications or meanings. Well, I got to the section about Daniel's prophecy of Antiocus Epiphany and thought to myself, "Hmm, the towers reached to the heavens (by Daniel's standard anyway) and then GWB went and stood on top of the ashes - he stomped on them.
I was immediately going to start writing it all down - I like to keep notes when such things come to me - only to continue reading and see that Peter had the same interpretation.
I guess that kind of helps me see that there must be something to this view. I mean, it can't be coincidence that we came up with the same conclusion. I don't belive in coincidence, anyway.
I agree, Living Positive. I have always said there is no such thing as coincidence, it is just God's way of letting you know He is there.
And don't be such a stranger; please come around more often.
Peter's post really hit home for me also because I remember when Bush was standing on the rubble and using his cheerleader blowhorn, I couldn't put my finger on it just then, but I knew something wasn't right. Now, thanks to Peter, I understand.
May God continue to enlighten all His people in the coming darkness.
I'll try to be around more often.
I'm kind of preoccupied with other things - I'll update folks on my blog:

Great stuff, Peter! I especially liked:
Heb:5:14: "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” Notice what happens as a result of having your spiritual senses exercised. You are able to discern good and evil. This may explain why so many are completely oblivious to the EVIL that has gripped this country. The so called Church is just a man made institution that is no different in its values than the world. Like the Great Whore she commits fornication with the Kings of the earth.
That reminds me a little of how Marc Ellis criticizes "Constantinian Judaism" in which religion cozies up to the powers that be, as opposed to true, prophetic religion, which tends to be a voice in the wilderness opposed to the powers that be.

Reading over your comments. I found it striking. That no one actually said anything. About what was in your post. Other than polite generalities.
Makes me wonder. Are any of these Christians sincere?
Or really paying attention.
This Christian is sincere...I am paying attention. What is in PeterZ's post is very revealing to those who have NOT been paying attention. They are the ones he is trying to reach. Most of us here know, believe and accept this truth already.
You did not say much...do you see this truth? How can you read what he has written and not respond to it. Are you paying attention?

Hey, Just wanted to pop by and say, that as a sinner, and I am a sinner, Peter Zarcone is the only man that I've ever met that has been able to not only explain God to me, but help me see him and his purpose, for both myself and the world.
He helped me truly understand that Jesus died on the cross for my sins, and that I will always be a sinner, so I shouldn't be affraid of Christ, or turn away from him, when I have felt unworthy of God's love, in my life.
No matter how pious we may try and be, we will never be and can never be perfect - hence the promise, that we would be forgiven of that, but only through the payment of Christ's blood and our recognition of it, does he pave the way for us to be worthy to even dare be in God's presence; if you don't turn your back on Christ, he will never turn his back on you.
I finally learned that from Peter.
I've heard others speak of God, but it always seems to be twisted with some kind of agenda, which is to put them in conflict with God; for they serve their purpose not God's, and subsequently, try to control, confuse, use, or deceive me.
Peter is the only person I trust to speak to me authoratatively about God and his word.
He is one of God's most loyal and humble foot soldiers.
He is fulfilling God's purpose with this blog and his 911 efforts.
God Bless
Brian M. Cox
Amen, Brian. You have a way with words. Hope to see you back again in the discussion.
Just in case no one has heard yet, there is a new movie about 911 called 'The Improbable Collapse' which appears by the previews to document relevant facts and questions. I hope everyone gets a chance to see it who hasn't quite made up their minds about what really happened that day in September of 2001.
Does anyone have any thoughts about the outcome of W's new strategy for Iraq?
I like the polite use of the word 'surge' in place of escalation. Catchy, isn't it?
P.S. Would also be interested in hearing any thoughts on why the media keep making such a big deal of the fact that Ford opposed Bush's invasion of Iraq when we never heard that before the invasion or before Ford's death. Just curious - seems odd to me. Thanks.

This post was very powerful and moving. As a journalist, believer, and a woman curious for the Truth, I have come to my own realization that the Antichrist is a spirit of evil. It is a love of one's own self, money, greed, everything Jesus was not. Our capitalist society is exploiting people, the environment, you name it, we've corrupted it. All in the name of making a buck---for the select elite. God bless you for tackling these difficult subjects; I believe more need to know what is truly unfolding before our own eyes. The world will not end with one man who is suave and charismatic, deceiving civilization. If we wait for that, the world will already be over.
Anonymous,
Your journalistic abilities shine through as you begin your journey into the truth. This world leaves much to be desired, but Jesus will give you everything the world cannot - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness. In today's world we all could use more of that; I know I can. I hope you will post more. God has led you here for a reason. I pray you heed that reason.

Thank you for your warm welcome, faithful forever. My name is Kelly and I am very eager to continue to speak with you all, I found this link through R. Stephen Hatchett's blog.
I believe that this time in our nation and world is crucial--to God's plan that is. Whenever I turn on the news, it is bloodshed, political arguments, and never-ending bad news. However, when I stop and reflect on God's plan for His people, it doesn't seem so bad.
It is necessary for this temporary Earth to be destroyed by the very people God made it for. Satan's plan to take as many souls from God is at work--using confusion, political correctedness, wars and money as his weapons. I believe God wants us to rise above the chaos and have a gentle, loving spirit--one to love someone who may not be here tomorrow.
I was watching MSNBC just now and there was a debate on troop escalation, and when Rev. Al Sharpeton came on, he and another speaker discusses Cindy Sheehan and the "Revelations Christians," scoffing that "if there were more of them, can you imagine what would happen?" At first, I was angered, but then this confirmed my belief that there are not many true, intellectual Christians who know or most of all, CARE what is going on before our very own eyes.
I grew up in a Baptist Church, where we were more focused on finding Christian boyfriends or girlfriends, or tearing up "bad movies" like Enemy of the State with Will Smith than going out and HELPING those who needed our help. We didn't study what was going on in our political climate and didn't yearn for the truth.
I am about to graduate from college now and have grown immensely as a writer and woman of God. I understand His purpose now and why this Earth seems so void of Him. It is all supposed to happen....and it won't be easy.

I to believe George Walker Bush Jr. is the antichrist. Never supported him. So many fundamentalist support him but that is because he answers to their greed. They worship money and the prosperity movement and are blind because of their greed for material wealth in this world. Look at the T.V. ministers. They prance around talking about material wealth and it is their right to claim it.
Kelly,
Unfortunately I am inclined to agree with you about not too many true Christians see or care about what is going on. I cannot explain this unless it is merely because God has not allowed them to see it because their heart is not in the right place. We have to remember that God will win more than He will lose and it could be our calling to start planting as many seeds as we possibly can. Through letting our love shine and dropping little hints to strangers here and there. God will do the rest. If we can each save one, we have done good. There is joy in my heart like there has never been before and I have always been a happy person. This is God. Don't get me wrong, I went through the shock and awe stage and believe I have been prepared to assist those just coming into the shock and awe stage themselves. Keep praying, praying, praying about EVERYTHING.
Sandra,
You have hit the nail right on the head. The greed is what is driving them and that is just what will kill them. Would you rather have riches on this temporary earth or riches for eternity. I would love to have the chance to ask them. I have seen these new churches with 15-20 members that all drive Benz and BMW's, etc., and they actually claim that God wants them to be rich and is rewarding them. Exclusive churches for wealthy people like country club memberships and they believe it. Those are not the kind of riches Jesus talks about. I wonder what their sermons are about. I would like to believe they are helping those less fortunate in some way.
Good to see more lights shining. There will be another shaking coming soon and pray to be assistance those just waking up - they are going to need it.

Thank you for your blog Peter.
You present an interesting angle to Escatology, a subject that was instrumental in bringing me to Jesus in the first place and a subject in which I continue to be interested in.
It is encouraging to come across others who are declaring God’s word to wake up a sleeping generation, particularly to Christians who are sitting back.
We are encouraged by Jesus to watch for His coming (Mark 13:37). The actual word which is used in the King James Version, means to ‘stay awake’ in the original Greek, also in Matthew 25 with the wise and foolish virgins and an exhortation to comfort ourselves in these things can be found in I Thessalonians 4:18.
It is a great time to be living, in this era. We are seeing the fulfilment of Biblical Prophecy and we are given a great charge. To walk by faith moment by moment hidden in Him, to be built up and grounded in His Word for our lives, to reach the lost by all means possible, winning them through God’s love, by His wisdom and in all humility, and finally to disciple those that accept Him. The Christian life is to live in our true God given potential and it is both challenging and exciting.
Thought no man knows the day or the hour, it is probable from what we are now seeing that we will be the generation that will see His return.
End times prophecy is both exciting and also disturbing. But it always points to back to Jesus and in the light of this we will stand firm on His word, being greatly encouraged to wake up as many as possible and win as many as will accept Him, before it is too late.
Thank you for your blog. It encourages me greatly and I will continue my blog in the knowledge that there are others on the internet declaring God’s word both to believers and to unbelievers.
God Bless you and thank you again.

With so much going on in the world, I pray for all victims, whether it be of war, violence, crime, poverty, hatred, any and all victims to find and have God's peace today and always. The unrest will be calmed and all evil slain, until then, all we can do is rest assured of God's promises.
The Beast has entered the temple! On January 31, George W. Bush visited the floor of the New Your Stock Exchange, becoming the second sitting president to ever visit the Floor (The Holy of Holies), Ronald Reagan was the first. (another 666er) The New York Stock Exchange is certainly the Temple of the God Mammon. It is the life blood of Capitalism. As Keith Olberman put it "The Mecca of Capitalism" . He was treated like a Rock Star, or in other words, A God. He was cheered and applauded and asked for autographs. He could not have had a more adoring crowed.

Did Reagan receive as warm of a welcome as Bush, do you know? I wonder what purpose was served by his appearance since everything he does has a reason...any ideas?
Previous post by faithful forever.
I missed that Olbermann show and would like to know what else Keith said about his appearance at the NYSE. If it happened on the 31st of January, are we just now hearing about it? That seems odd in itself...

I know when I was reading the Left Behind series (for entertainment only) the authors showed them to be literal and I have heard discussions about them being John the Baptist and Elijah's spirit reborn, but never really could grasp this. All things are possible with our Lord though.
Still searching....

forget everything you ever read by Tim Lahey. the future literal man antichrist doctrine was composed by a Jesuit monk named Ribera as a stop-gap measure to try to counter what the Reformation teachers were saying. just as the antichrist is figurative, the two witnesses are figurative. the antichrist is ANY man who places himself on a level with God. during the Reformation, that man was the pope. the Roman Church was dealt a fatal blow following the French Revolution, but was revived in the late 1920's and early '30's when the vatican cut deals with Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler. now, how would you like to know that the President of the Union Banking Corporation, and a board member of National City Bank, and Brown Brothers Herriman, which were seized under the Trading with the Enemy Act in 1942 for funding Nazi Germany, was none other than Prescott Bush, the grandfather of GW?
Chris,
I know how corrupt Prescott was and fully understand this is how the Bush family made their family fortune - the Holocaust. Either from funding it or stealing from the Jewish people. Disgusting. Also, a Skull and Bones man.
Faithful forever
Peter, I for one am eagerly anticipating the arrival of your post on the two witnesses. I've come to believe that there are many aspects to these characters from Revelation 11. Many traits. We will know the full truth of their nature as we bear witness to the witnesses, however we might do that...
Me too Kevin Young - I am waiting patiently for the post on the two witnesses and I know it will be worth the wait.
Love and peace to all.

The bible I have, gives the Isaiah 30:25 prophecy incorrectly as, " .... when the tower falls." Then, I found this verse in the Hebrew Bible original text, which gives the phrase as, " ...towers fall." THE VERSE IN YOUR POST IS CORRECT. My bible is corrupted. I find this shocking because my bible was an expensive edition designed for priests & pastors to use in their church. I then noticed that other prophecies in the original Hebrew Bible have been altered in the King James editions. All Christian bibles are supposed to duplicate this original text and not alter important words like "towers". A GREAT POST, Peter Z. A breakthrough in biblical research.
I wanted to take a minute to post my comment about seeing things how they really are. I'm a 24 year old women who was brought up to have faith in the Lord and His word. I remember I was a junior in high school the morning of the 9/11 attacks. I lived in Arizona at the time, and I was getting ready for school when my dad was staring at the TV screen in awe at what he was seeing. I was never really big on the news programs (much like any 17 year old!), but I stood dead in my tracks as watched in astonishment and horror. It was the talk of the town; the state, America, and the WORLD for that matter. And all I ever remember hearing was "Terrorists" and "Terrorist Attacks" and how we needed to fight for our freedom and get revenge on those "Terrorists" for what they have done. All the memorials and all the moments of silence for those who were lost in this catostrophic event. Here it is, 7 years later and I stumble across a video on the internet about 911 conspiracy theories and I was incredibly intrigued. I sat down last night watching MULTIPLE videos and documentaries on how things just don't add up. I stayed awake until 4:30 in the morning doing research about all of this, and at the end of it all, when I happened to see a picture of George W. Bushs' face, it made me cringe; and I litterally felt ill...body numb and cold. This man, OUR PRESIDENT, the man who is suppose to protect this country and inflict "good morals" and has "so much faith in the Lord" is a con artist and is pure evil. I am convinced that our government was 100% behind ALL of the 9/11 events and I am very shocked that more people have bought into the lies, cover ups, and the deceit of our government. After all, I fell for it, and I believe I am a very open minded individual. I always knew in my heart that our government was corrupt; I just never thought for one minute they could stoop this low to kill THOUSANDS of innocent men and women. IT ASTOUNDS AND SICKENS ME. But at the same time, I look at how we are all so brain washed into getting revenge, that there are thousands of men and women RIGHT NOW who are VOLUNTEERINGLY sacrificing their lives everyday for a president and country who has done nothing but bold face lie to them and put them out to the wolves to be fed on...it makes me sick. This world is at its all time low, and people out there don't wish to see it. I have truthfully seen the world through another persons eyes; I did not see the wolf in sheeps clothing until last night. He is the last antichrist, George W. Bush, Jr; and I would have never known it until my research. I wish to get the word out, and show the scriptures in the Bible about the deception. Like you said, "there are no coincedences"..I was shown to these web sites for a reason and I truly, with all my heart belive that. Lord is all knowing, and the Bible is proof in itself that He is all knowing; for all of the prophecies are right there for us to read and study. We, as a people, need to take the wool off of our eyes and realize that the only one we should trust in is Lord Jesus and His word. Our government is made out to be all knowing and the most important thing we have on this earth, and we have to go by what they want and by what they say we should do..but what do we do when we find out our government is corrupt, evil, and untrustable?? Still abide by their wishes and bow down at their feet?! Our Lord Jesus will be coming, and I can see exactly why now. We have hit an all time low and evil is at its all time high. Money IS the root of all eveil, and by what the government did to the wolrd trade centers is proof that it is. We can all try to fix the earth with our "green" products and play like we can reverse what we have done to this world; but the fact of the matter is that in the long run, it will not matter..He will be coming back REGARDLESS if we are driving an expensive Hybrid vehicle to "save our world". THERE IS NO SAVING IT; ONLY JESUS WILL SAVE US WHEN HE COMES BACK FOR US. I want to take this time out time thank you for posting this, you have inspired me and opened my eyes even more so than what they were. You are doing what our Lord wants us to do for people..teach of His word and open up the hearts and minds to what is REALLY the TRUTH. Thank you, and God Bless You!!

Shannon; Thank you for your kind words. It is a blessing to know that the Lord has opened another's eyes.
I would encourage you to continue to learn and grow in the knowledge of the Truth. I have a number of end time teachings on this blog I hope they will be a blessing to you. There is an active discussion group on the link "End Times Journal" http://endtimesjournal.blogspot.com
Amiable post and this enter helped me alot in my college assignement. Say thank you you for your information.
What phrase... super, a brilliant idea
Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
He is not talking about some 9/11. Trust me, there will be a lot worse things than THAT happening. You have no wisdom. He is talking about Babylon. The fall of Babylon, the end of the world. It is soon...because almost NO ONE is teaching it correct anymore, including you. Just ask God for help in understanding the bible more clearly.
