20th Century Eschatology

Picture
6-30-18, With textual and mathematical confirmation, in conjunction with the evening news, placing Islam in the center of eschatology, if our current chosen end-time understanding concludes otherwise are we really to expect that:
 
Yet a different billion and a half people will also be specifically antichrist as the most important fundamental ("shirk") of an as yet unknown European religion. And a different billion and a half people will also follow a different, as yet unknown, European false prophet [Mohammad]. A different religion [Islam] will also "wear out the saints" by murdering Jews and Christians (Dan 7:25) - and by beheading (Revelation 20:4). Also this different religion will change the times - by creating its own calendar and laws. (Daniel 7:25) It/they will ignore the Sabbath as well as imposing Islamic Sharia law throughout the world in the place of legitimate laws of sovereign nations. (Daniel 7:25)  See "Time, Times and a Half"
 
Yet a different religion will also build yet another abomination on the Temple Mount that will:
1) Blaspheme God The Most High - for 1300 years with mosaic inscriptions inside and out that read "Far be it from God's glory that he  should have a Son".
2) Blaspheme God's name - blaspheme Yahweh by calling their god Allah.
3) Blaspheme God's tabernacle - by building the Dome of the Rock, with blasphemy written all over it, within 300 feet of where the Holy of Holies was kept.

Yet a different religion will also be marked with the number 666 = Bismillah = "in the name of Allah". Also Yahoo search - quran 666 - and find the "submission" sect that says the "Quran is the 666".
 
Yet a different religion will establish in a few years, what took Islam almost 1400 years to establish.
 
Are we really to believe that the 1.5 billion antichrist Muslims in antichrist Islam today, will all convert to a different as yet unknown European anti-Christ religion, operated by some as yet unknown anti-Christ charismatic European leader and this in a period of just a few years? [Consider the current European Muslim migrant invasion (1). - Ed.]
 
John specifically indicated that the 8th beast has nothing to do with the Roman Empire, because that was the beast that "is", (Revelation 13:11-14) as he penned Revelation.  He wrote that the 8th beast "is not" - that is to John - who was writing about the things that were, are and shall be - at the time of his writing.  [See John's Eight Beasts page.]
 
"God is truth, so how well a person serves the Lord is not dependent on how artfully he can defend his doctrines,  but on his willingness to seek out and follow the truth." - Ellis Skolfield

Israel: Unjust Demonization

6/30/2018

Bishop Graham Tomlin and the
​Demonization of Israel

6-24-18, Gatestone -- Anglican Bishop Graham Tomlin, heads the diocese of Kensington in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, which has many of London's most expensive residential properties, is undoubtedly a man of brains and good works.[1] 
On May 26, 2018, he published in The Times an article, entitled, "If this rich vein of wisdom disappears, a part of us dies". The "rich vein of wisdom" to which he refers is the long tradition of Christian thought and experience in the region where the religion first appeared, and was handed down through centuries of Islamic rule. For the most part, the article is a well-argued defense of Christians in the Middle East he says:
"The systematic persecution of Christians in the Middle East is a serious threat. The number of Christians in Middle Eastern countries has fallen from about 20 per cent to 4 per cent in recent years and regular bomb attacks on Christians in Egypt are becoming part of a deadly pattern."
So far so good. Tomlin's heart is surely in the right place. But immediately after that he goes on: [falsely implying Israel is persecuting Christians]
"Even in Jerusalem, new regulations are threatening to tax the Christian churches out of existence, prompting the recent unprecedented closure of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre as an act of protest. The buildings from ancient times will still stand, but if Christians are hounded out of the Middle East, driven to emigrate by radical Islam, or, in the case of many Palestinian Christians, by the lack of opportunities to thrive in Israel, this rich source of wisdom will disappear just like the ruins of Palmyra." Reality: The "ruins of Palmyra" is, of course, a reference to the widespread destruction of the famous Syrian site, one of the wonders of the ancient world, by Islamic State in 2015 and again in 2017. Referring to this desecration, however vaguely, implies some sort of moral contiguity between ISIS and Israel. There's no question that the Islamic terror group ISIS at its height, and even today, has played a heavy-handed role in the persecution of Christians in the Middle East, notably in Iraq. Not Israel. [..snip]
  • If Israel plays a part in the persecution of Christians, it must be doing a very bad job indeed.
  • "Shortly after the [1967] war, [Israeli Defense Minister] Dayan met with officials of the Muslim Wakf, who governed the holy site, and formally returned the Mount to their control.... the Wakf would determine who prayed at the site, an arrangement that would effectively bar non-Muslim prayer." — Yossi Klein Halevi, The Atlantic.
  • It should be clear from the above that Israel is one of the least likely countries in the world to persecute the followers of any religion. A well-educated and thinking man, Bishop Tomlin ought to have known this or have been able to check the facts for himself. None of the above is remotely secret.
  • "[A]re the world Christian bodies denouncing the Islamic forces for the ethnic cleansing, genocide and historic demographic-religious revolution their brethren are suffering? No. Christians these days are busy targeting the Israeli Jews." — Giulio Meotti, Italian journalist.
In Israel, Christians, like the followers of several other religions, are given the full protection of the law, their holy places, including churches, are guaranteed security under the 1967 "Protection of Holy Places Law". This protection applies, not just to the major denominations (Judaism, Islam, Christianity), but to numerous minority groups. For Christians, it applies broadly to the officially recognized churches (Catholic, Orthodox, Monophysite, and Protestant, which together make up around 20 very old institutions (many indigenous and reaching back to the earliest Christian years), with another 30 denominations. Outside of Israel, Muslim states across the Middle East ban, restrict or actively persecute indigenous churches, such as the Copts in Egypt or Christians in Turkey, where Pastor Andrew Brunson is currently facing 35 years in jail, seemingly for preaching Christianity. Christian churches are banned outright in countries such as Saudi Arabia, and conversion of Muslims to Christianity is forbidden. Muslims who do convert suffer severe consequences as apostates, sometimes death. Thirteen Muslim-majority countries sentence apostates to death. In the Maldives, just owning a Bible is punishable by death. In a list of the 25 most dangerous countries for Christians, 18 Muslim states are listed. More here

Her history: liberal activist and political operative, worked for the campaign of Michael Dukakis, practiced law a total of 3 years, one of them for the Clinton White House working domestic policy, clerked for the late Thurgood Marshall, one of the most liberal Supreme Court members in recent history. Was the first female dean of Harvard Law School. So three years (barely four, if you include her on-the-job training as United States Solicitor General) of practical legal experience and a few years clerking in the federal courts.

6-29-18, THE 360 DAY YEAR PROPHETIC CALENDAR
 
The Jews kept various mostly lunar/solar calendars over the ages, so how could we decide which calendar the Lord meant for us to use in Old Testament prophecy?  
 
The 360 day calendar that was applied to the math in this study, is a component of this "language" of prophecy.  Just as a day never literally equals "a year," it is unlikely that anyone kept a continuous 360 day calendar without periodic adjustment, or winter would have switched with summer in the calendar year, about every 35 years.  One early calendar, for example, was adjusted by adding a 30-day month every six years to compensate for the discrepancy. Scripture offers few clues regarding days, months and years to suggest a "language" for prophetic years, but one is found in the account of the flood in Genesis:
 
"In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.  v24  And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days. 8:4  And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat." Genesis 7:11, 24, 8:4
 
In the above verses we find a period of 5 months that total 150 days constituting 30 day months that may suggest a 360 day year. In order to convert these prophetic "years" to the solar years of our historical record we divide 360 by 365.24 to arrive at a multiplier of .9857.
 
Only by applying this calendar uniformly and having the several Old Testament problems that span from 480 to 1335 years repeatedly confirm this "language", may we conclude that our understanding from Genesis is likely correct. Certainly the odds against the several problems conspiring with this kind of mathematical precision, to be an accident, are astronomical. It's readily apparent that this calendar could not log 150 days over any 5 consecutive month period, as our 360 day prophetic year calendar in the account of the flood in Genesis does. 
 
WHY NOW?  Why can we only just now begin to see this whole picture?
THE BOOK WAS SEALED!

Daniel 12:4, 9  God told Daniel, "...shut up the words and seal the book, [even] to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. v9 Go thy way, Daniel: for the words [are] closed up and sealed till the time of the end." 
 
It wasn't until after the events of 1948 and 1967 had passed that we could check both ends of most of the prophetic math problems assigned to us through prophecy.  So how reliable are the doctrines that professed to understand the book of Daniel before this "time of the end"? [not very!] Another seal Daniel may have applied is the bifidic and chiasmic forms of Hebrew poetry.
 
NEWTON AND HENRY ON DANIEL'S "TIME OF THE END:"
  • Sir Isaac Newton expressed it thus: "This Prophecy is called the Revelation, with respect to the scripture of truth, which Daniel was commanded to shut up and seal, till the time of the end. Daniel sealed it until the time of the end; [Daniel 12:4, 9] and until that time comes, the Lamb is opening the seals:.... All which is as much as to say, that these Prophecies of Daniel and John should not be understood till the time of the end: .... But in the very end, the Prophecy should be so far interpreted as to convince many." (Part II. Observations Upon the Apocalypse of St. John. Chap 1) 
  • Matthew Henry expressed it: "That this prophecy of those times, though sealed up now, would be of great use to those that should live then... Hos. 6:3. Those that would have their knowledge increased must take pains, must not sit still in slothfulness and bare wishes but run to and fro, must make use of all the means of knowledge...Those things of God which are now dark and obscure will hereafter be made clear and easy to be understood. Truth is the daughter of time. Scripture prophecies will be expounded by the accomplishment of them; therefore they are given... and reserved."

Facebook Strong 'Rules' for Baby Pictures

Facebook’: Social media giant targets pro-lifers in new advertisement/photo rules

June 28, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) -- Facebook says its latest rules for advertising what it calls “political” content will promote transparency, but after a month of operation they are effectively handicapping many publishers, including LifeSiteNews. Recently the media giant began requiring publishers to submit identification and mailing addresses in order to run advertisements and images (promotions to lists) of a “political” nature in the United States.

Among the initial list of subjects deemed by Facebook to be “political” and, which will expand over time, are “abortion,” “civil rights,” “health,” "religion" and “values.” Facebook says the change is meant to prevent foreign actors from interfering in American elections.

Users will be able to report unlabeled or suspicious ads believed should be marked. Then, the publisher (pending Facebook’s review of the complaint) will be banned from posting ads until it completes the verification process.

Ramos: Killer in Maryland Not 'White'

6-29-18, Yesterday's mass killing in Maryland's killer has been identified as Hispanic Jarrod Ramos. The press doesn’t want you to understand that the people he wanted to kill were white and Jewish. The racial element is being omitted from the reports. Imagine if the shooter were a white male and all the victims were Latinos or Muslims? The shooting wasn't just an ordinary mass murder but a hate crime. At a minimum, Hiaasen and Frischman are Jews; Winters may also be Jewish.

​Woman stalked by Annapolis shooter say she warned police 5 ...
6-29-18, DailyMail -- The mass shooting occurred after years of threats and abuse following the 2011 Capital Gazette article about Ramos harassment of the woman was headlined 'Jarrod wants to be your friend', and was published after he pleaded guilty to criminal harassment. The article, quoted in its entirety in the 2013 defamation lawsuit, described how Ramos had sent the woman numerous emails spanning several months, calling her vulgar names and telling her to kill herself. The woman told a WBAL TV reporter that she had become so frightened of Ramos that she had to move three times and now sleeps with a gun, adding that he is a 'f***ing nut job'.

Right to Pray IN OWN HOME? Yeah

US Supreme Court overturns ruling by 10th Circuit in Colorado ... yes, Mary Ann Sause of Kansas has the right to pray in her own home!
According to the 10th Circuit 2017  ruling in Colorado, in essence, police have the right to invade your home and abuse you ... if you’re a Christian. Wonder if the plaintiff were a Muslim how the court would have ruled?

​6-28-18, WASHINGTON — The U.S. Supreme Court ordered a new round of hearings ... In a Per Curiam decision the high court concluded that a lower court decision from the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals against Sause should be reversed due to unsettled issues regarding "the free exercise issue" and "the officers' entitlement to qualified immunity."
Picture
Picture
Background: In 2013 Kansas two police officers entered Mary Ann Sause's home to search it and, among other things, stopped her from praying. The retired nurse living in a housing project, sued the officers; the original complaint that her radio was too loud.

When she heard she might be arrested, she got down on a rug and began praying, but the officers demanded that she stop and get up. They told her to turn down her radio issuing two citations. 

The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver threw Sause's case out, concluding that while the conduct of the officers was unprofessional, there was no court decision finding a First Amendment violation based on facts like those in her case. Although she told the officers she had constitutional right to pray ... they told her that the Constitution was "just a piece of paper that doesn't work here" and that, for refusing to open the door the first time they knocked, she was going to jail.

THE MATHEMATICAL PROBABILITIES ​

Picture
Picture
6-28-18, "DANIEL'S MESSIAH IN THE CRITIC’S DEN" is a website that discusses the mathematical probabilities of just one single component, of just one of the problems above - Daniel's 69 weeks - coming out to within even a couple of years of being correct. 
  • "Section 4.3 - Summary - There are several reasonable interpretations of the Daniel 9:25 prophecy that are successful predictions for pointing to Jesus as the Messiah. Since it is not known whether the crucifixion of Jesus occurred in 30AD or 33 AD, in order to be conservative, the highest probability reported by Section 4.1 or 4.2 which is 0.0071 will be considered as the conservative estimate for the probability of the Daniel 9:25 prophecy occurring. Within these unknowns is the possibility that the prediction was essentially exact because one comparison matches to the day."
THE MATH MULTIPLIERS: The following methods were used to arrive at the multipliers.  The average number of days in a solar year is 365.24.  Dividing this number by 12 we get 30.436666... days in a month.  Rounding this number off we can arrive at the 30.44 average days in a month that we used uniformly above, and also a perfectly acceptable solution to average days in a month.
 
In regard to the multiplier to convert the Old Testament 360 day prophetic year "language", to the Solar year units of our historical record, we divide it by the same 365.24 average days in a solar year, we get .9856532.  Rounding this number shorter we arrive at .9857 which is the multiplier we used uniformly above to convert Daniel's Hebrew year language to the solar years of our historical record. [360 day calendar]

ZERO YEAR: For those suggesting that Daniel's "times" problems miss because of "zero year", historians allow a 2-3 year leeway in dating of this Babylonian period.  Interestingly, many of the same critics don't hesitate to consider at least 69 of Daniel's 70 weeks, as weeks of days as years fulfilled at the Cross, even though there may be as much as a 2 to 3 year ambiguity in historical dating at both ends of that problem.  That possible error of 5 years in 500, would be proportionate to an error of 25 years in 2500.  Yet Daniel's "times" problems are date certain on the 1948 and 1967 ends, and within historically acceptable limits on the other.  They also confirm  each other by working together in parallel over this period of 2500 years.  

If one thought Daniel missed by such a narrow margin, even though these problems work textually as well ("for a long time" - "end of the shattering the strength of the holy people"), then one would be stuck having to believe that it is a mathematical and textual coincidence, the odds against which, are somewhat beyond astronomical.  Even an honest atheist would have difficulty making, let alone supporting, that claim.  Might the Lord have allowed for these problems to be correct when calculated simply and without adjustment in the first place?
 
DAY-YEAR "LANGUAGE" OF PROPHECY: The use of prophetic day=year language is certainly nothing new.  Indeed the interpretations in the church today are what are new, especially those from within the last hundred to few hundred years or so (futurism/preterism).  As mentioned earlier, Scripture instructs us:  Job 8:8  For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:  9  (For we [are but of] yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth [are] a shadow:)
  • Quoting from book, "The False Prophet": "In 1569, the great Anabaptist theologian, Thieleman van Braght, wrote the following in Martyrs Mirror, a thousand two hundred and threescore days, which reckoned according to prophetic language means as many years… let it be reckoned as it may, say we, as a very long period of time.'  [Pgs 21-24]
  • Two hundred years later, Matthew Henry, in his 'Commentary of the Whole Bible', came to the same conclusion (Vol VI, page 1157 column 1, para. 2):  "….if the beginning of that interval could be ascertained, this number of prophetic days, taking a day for a year, would give us a prospect of when the end might be."
  • Isaac Newton - "She is nourished by the merchants of the earth, three times or years and an half, or 42 months, or 1260 days: and in these Prophecies days are put for years." - Observations Upon the Prophecies of Daniel, and the Apocalypse of St.a John - Chapter 3
  • Also Jamison, Faucett & Brown commentary - "..... in the wilderness 'a thousand two hundred and threescore days.' In the wider sense, we may either adopt the year-day theory of 1260 years..."
    • Ezekiel 4:5-6  For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.
    • Numbers 14:34  After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, [even] forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, [even] forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
    • Genesis 29:27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.
 Additionally Exodus alludes to a week of days as years:
  • Exodus 23:10-11  And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof: But the seventh [year] thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, [and] with thy oliveyard. [To be cont'd]

​Heroic husky, Nanook, rescues injured hiker in Alaska

Picture
6-27-18, Amelia Milling, 21, had set out solo on a planned three-day hike. She's a college student from Rochester Institute of Technology in New York. She was about four miles into Crow Pass when her trekking poles broke, causing her to slide in deep snow down a 300-foot mountain. She crashed into a large boulder, which threw her about 30 feet. The impact sent down the mountain 300 to 400 feet. Bruised and stunned, at the bottom she was greeted by a tail-wagging, "Nanook," a white husky.
Milling, who is deaf, & told the Anchorage Daily News through an interpreter. "I saw his collar and it said (the dog) was a Crow Pass guide, and I realized that he was there to help me." She followed Nanook back to the trail. He stayed with her through the night and was at her side when she came to Eagle River Crossing. The current was strong and when she slipped and lost her footing, Milling says Nanook grabbed her backpack straps and pulled her safely to shore.
When Milling activated a satellite-operated emergency beacon, Nanook waited with her until rescuers arrived by helicopter. When rescuers landed, they saw Nanook's tag and contacted his owner Mr Swift to tell him about his dog's adventures. More here

1-20-16, Prevention Magazine -- Your body can throw you for a loop at any time. You wake up with a sore throat the day you're set to make a major presentation, a seafood-salad sandwich leaves you with grumbling indigestion, or you overdo it at the gym and arrive home with a stiff neck. Wouldn't it be great to have a live-in doctor/therapist/trainer to tend to your everyday aches and pains? Well, you can ... look in your pantry or refrigerator!

​Following is a short list of natural remedies for common annoying ailments:
  1. Sore Throat? Garlic - Gargle twice daily with a solution of six pressed garlic cloves mixed into a glass of warm (not hot) water.
  2. Cough? Dark Chocolate - Indulge in a square or two dark chocolate. Theobromine compound in the chocolate is more effective than codeine at suppressing persistent coughs.
  3. Burn? Apply aloe vera gel
  4. Essential Oils - Eucalyptus/Peppermint/lavender helps to curb seasonal allergic hay fever attacks. Just rub it on your palms and breathe it! [Note: I use it everyday. Annette]​
  5. Thyroid Problems? Kelp [iodine]  is most commonly used in pill form. It's recommended 600 mg per day with food and liquids. [Note: For two years I've been taking it for my thyroid to halt growing goiter in my throat. It works for me; I'm 75 years old. Annette]  More here

May 2017, Hysterical Maxine encounter here

America Has Historically Been Civilized
​***
Treating each other with courtesy and respect even when we disagree with each other is civility. However, in this new and modern USA, Democrat 'liberal leftists' have a different definition. For them it's harassing our Press Secretary, Sarah Sanders so much that she now requires Secret Service protection. One leader, Maxine Waters suggests her supporters  harass Trump administration employees in restaurants, cinemas and at gas stations.

President Trump dubs Maxine Waters the 'new leader' of the Democrats
6-28-18,  -- President Trump’s remarks came during a rally in Fargo, N.D., Wednesday evening, 6-27-18 as he endorsed Rep Kevin Cramer arguing that Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., is "taking over" the Democratic Party. His comments came after Waters
advocated hecklers harrass his administration in public settings. Even tho a president is hated, you'd think that all political groups would get behind a good economy and reduced unemployment. A good economy benefits all Americans; but that's not what the left is about. They show their hateful colors everyday as they support illegal migrant invaders over fellow Americans. See Trump rally here

​Hysteria, Hate, and Histrionics Defines the Left | Canada
6-28-18, The hate, and histrionics stoked by the MSM, reading their marching orders from the likes of Maxine Waters. Democrats are defending MS-13 gang members who have terrorized Salvadorans, robbing and stealing from ordinary citizens who are so scared for their lives, they give them everything they want – clothes, money, chicken, food, and anything else they demand. These "animals" who maim and kill for ritualistic sport are coming to our shores among unaccompanied minors housed on our military bases and in church-run shelters. The President was right about them. Democrats have been successfully brainwashed and indoctrinated in public schools and have become strident and militant proponents of the new world order, of global communism, and of open borders. Anybody else who believes differently is a threat that must be marginalized and eliminated.

Behold the Beast, MATHEMATICAL PRECISION OF PROPHECY
Ellis Skolfield, Installment 7 of 12
 

Picture
6-27-18, This next problem uses prophetic "weeks" of days as years, and includes 3 consecutive events spanning 483 years in prophecy, that were all in Daniel's future - and came to pass just as he prophesied - proving that Jesus is the Messiah. [Link to a video of this problem.]
 

Daniel 9:24-26: "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.  Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.  And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined."
Picture

Quoting from book, "The False prophet":  "Almost 100 years after Gabriel spoke to Daniel, a special decree was granted by Artaxerxes I to Nehemiah (444-445 BC).  This is the ONLY decree recorded in the Bible that gave the Jews permission to 'restore Jerusalem and rebuild its walls'.  The Messiah, Jesus, was "cut off" or crucified in 32 or 33AD."

Much of Christianity understands these 69 weeks to be 69 sevens of years.  So we have 69 x 7 or 483 prophetic 'years'."  Again, uniformly using our multiplier of .9857 to reconcile this 360-day year "language" (per Genesis) with the solar year units of our modern historical record, yields: 483 x .9857 = 476 solar years.  Artaxerxes' decree in 444 BC + 476 years = 32 AD, the cross right to the year!
 
But what about those six points that were supposed to be fulfilled during these 70 weeks? Ah-ha! All but one were fulfilled at the cross; didn't Jesus:
  1. finish transgression eternally?
  2. make an end of sin,(John 1:29)?
  3. make reconciliation for iniquity?
  4. bring in everlasting righteousness?
  5. anoint the Most holy with His own precious blood?  
However left out was 'Seal up vision and prophecy;' this is where those peculiar seven and sixty-two weeks come in: 7 x 7 years in prophecy = 48.3 Solar years. 444 BC - 48.3 = 395.7 BC

In the Old Testament the Prophet Malachi was inspired to write the last book of the Old Testament. The Scripture to the Jews was complete, and no more was written until the New Testament era! So Old Testament vision and prophecy were indeed 'sealed up'. (Romans 11:8, 2 Corinthians 3:15)."  
 
However, in this time of the end apparently God is increasingly lifting the scales from the eyes and ears of the Jews; wisdom is increasing more and more are recognizing Jesus as their Messiah, as God takes "the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand." Ezekiel 37:19
 
Calculating the above 3 date pins in Daniel's 70 weeks was accomplished using the exact same mathematical method employed in Daniel's 1290 and 1335 days in problem 2 and 4 above!  All confirmed textually as well.

Picture
Another 1260 "days" problem from Revelation regarding the Two Witnesses 
The Bible defines the two witnesses as the Jewish and Christian church.  

Revelation 11:3:  And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.  
These two witnesses are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 1948 - 1260 = 688 .... the Dome of the Rock.  

These were religiously exiled from the Holy Land by Islam, and sent into the world, marked symbolically, specifically, and repeatedly above, by the Dome of the Rock - the abomination of desolation.  Mark 13:14

Employing the scriptural adjacency rule of hermeneutics we learn: Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in My right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

Romans 11:24 For if thou [the Gentiles] wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree [the Jews]: how much more shall these [the Jews], which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
 
Jamieson Faucett and Brown  "... I think the twofold Church, Jewish and Gentile, may be meant by the two candlesticks represented by the two witnesses ... "
 
To explore the two witnesses further, read the chapter of that title from the False Prophet at this link.  [I highly recommend, however, that you start the book from the beginning; it's a free download.]
 
The book of Daniel was sealed, until this "time of the end" and we can see that it wasn't until the years of 1948 and 1967 had passed, that we could fully understand the textual and mathematical solutions to the problems in Revelation when knowledge increased, to relate back to Daniel, for the full picture to come into view. 
 
The mathematics combined with the application of sound hermeneutic principles confirm these conclusions textually.  It is clear that this study is not about some "Bible code" but rather about solutions to the day, week, and month, math problems, that were assigned to us by prophecy.  ​
Picture

If you have read this far, congratulations. You are that one in a thousand that has been blessed with a Berean spirit and is willing to simply ask the question, "What if the Lord meant....".  This question has become increasingly rare in our indoctrinated Churches of today, in which all of the hundreds of denominations are convinced that their's is the correct eschatological interpretation, as doctrine trumps truth.

New Despicable Tactic to Abuse Government and Media Workers 'Shaming' As Was Done to Sarah Sanders

6-26-18, Clarion -- A new culture of shaming has taken hold in America. Trump administration employees are being shouted out of restaurants and movie theaters or impolitely “asked” to leave. A CNN reporter was recently heckled at a pro-Trump rally.

The level of civility has gotten so bad that Congresswomen Maxine Waters stated that shaming should be a concerted Democrat political strategy. “If you see anybody from that Cabinet [of the Trump administration] in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere ... absolutely harass them.”

While people are certainly entitled to their own opinions, harassing others who don’t agree with them in the public sphere degrades one of the most precious rights given to us by our founding fathers: freedom of speech.

Islamists have been successful portraying every criticism of Islamism as racist and bigoted. “Islamophobia!” they cry, making any critic of political Islam a persona non-grata in the public sphere. Historically as the world devolved into fascism, communism, Nazism and Islamism, America stood apart, maintaining respect for political process – a large part of which eschewed demagoguery and relied on courteous civilized "dialogue." I hope it's not gone forever. More here

California Legislators Known for 'Grand Intentions'

California bill offers phony solution to 'fake' news problem
Mar 18, 2018 - SACRAMENTO — California’s Legislature is known for its grand intentions, so this kind of bill is nothing new. But we all should be concerned when state lawmakers — who seem incapable of even fixing the state’s most basic problems, such as underfunded pensions, decrepit infrastructure and the troubled education system — start tinkering with something as complex and fundamental as the internet.The measure, Assembly Bill 1950 by Assemblyman Marc Levine, D-Marin County, would “require that bots are linked to a verified human and that all advertising purchases on social media to be made by verified human accounts.” The apparent goal is to battle “fake” news, where automated accounts spread dubious news stories and create the impression of a grassroots groundswell.
​California Considers Creating A Fake News Advisory Group
6-25-18, California is considering creating a "fake news" advisory group in order to ... Senate Bill 1424 ... the bill would only make it harder for legitimate companies to advertise given that they’ll have to follow some new state-based regulations. The bot operators will simply locate in Nevada or Thailand, and they won’t have to worry about California regulations. That would hobble smaller companies that are established here. [Sounds like what George Orwell described in his book "1984" where 'big brother' is always watching and contriving fake news.]

​Behold the Beast, MATHEMATICAL PRECISION OF PROPHECY
Ellis Skolfield
Installment 6 of 12

 6-26-18, Stunningly, the two math problems from Daniel launch from the shared beginning date of 583 BC and nail God's symbolic pin date for the Islamic Dome of the Rock - the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION - and then go on to pin the year of the zenith of, and death knell of, the Islamic First Jihad conquering of nearly the whole known world!  At the same time the above problems unite the books of Revelation and Daniel with mathematical and textual precision. Blessedly we don't have to depend on only the six math problems above.  There are over a dozen such problems explored in my free ebook you can download: The False Prophet [1].  If the above peaked your interest it would be best to start that book from the beginning, to keep them in context, because The False Prophet is a sound, hermeneutic, brick by brick, empirical argument.  

Let's study another 42 "months" problem from John in Revelation, prefaced with a related verse:

Revelation 13:2, 5 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his [Daniel's beast is "his"] feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. v5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months.

Again using the average of 30.44 days in a month, multiplied by 42 months = 1278.5 days (as years).  Subtracting this from 1967 we arrive again at 688.5. The founding year of the Islamic Dome of the Rock edifice erected on Jerusalem's Temple Mount.

The political and religious control (through jizya - that is - humiliation taxes of the enslaved, etc.) of the Islamic LBL beast, of Revelation 13 "continued" in Jerusalem until the Israelis retook the Holy City in 1967 - Islam being marked symbolically by the founding year of the Dome of the Rock 688 AD.

Daniel defined what a beast is, when the figurative language of a dream or vision is used in Scripture, and he did it in the context of the lion, bear, leopard and fourth "terrible" beast:  Daniel 7:23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth... And so we learn that in the figurative language of a dream or vision in prophecy, beast = kingdom.

Islamic conquest resulted in the exile of Jews and Christians from the Holy Land, and subsequent spiritual desolation of the region.  By the 1800's it was a physically desolated, deserted wasteland.   
In "A History of the Jews" page 321 Paul Johnson writes:  "Between 1827 and 1839, largely through British efforts, the population of Jerusalem rose from 550 to 5,500 and in all Palestine it topped 10,000 - the real beginning of the Jewish return to the Promised Land. In 1838 Palmerston appointed the first western vice-consul in Jerusalem, W.T. Young, and told him 'to afford protection to the Jews generally'."

We can see from Revelation 13:2, that the dragon, Satan, gives the beast the power that is mentioned in Revelation 13:5, that is manifest in Islamic control of this empire. Daniel's successive kingdom beasts of lion, bear and leopard, which Bible scholars recognize as Babylon, Medo-Persia, and ancient Greece, form the composite leopard-bear-lion - beast / kingdom - we find in Revelation 13:2.  This same geographical region is today occupied by Iraq, Iran, and Syria/Lebanon.   While some Islamic sects have national autonomy, and different sects of Islam are at war against each other, they are all perfectly united behind their false prophet Mohammed, and united in the spirit of antichrist.  These modern day realities perfectly compliment this sound hermeneutic, textual and mathematical study.
Picture
Eventually Western wealth transfer to the Middle East through oil purchase would heal the wound of the leopard-bear-lion beast, financing the second Jihad in the image of the first Jihad.  This image worship may also include the Black Stone in the Kaaba, that at one time housed over 360 idols, that all Muslims bow toward, in their daily prayers, from everywhere in the world.

​Liberals Are Pushing The Country To The Edge
 
 6-26-18,  *-- In a time of crazy, it’s been a week of lunacy.  The ability to agree to disagree is dead, murdered the leftist mobs who demand absolute adherence to their political will or they declare you an enemy of the people and seek to destroy you.
 
 Make no mistake, this mob is not the majority, or even anywhere close to plurality, but history is littered with examples of small, committed and violent gangs of thugs obtaining power through a willingness to do anything to get it. That’s what Democrats are becoming – American Castros. When the leadership of the party does not condemn mob action against a Cabinet Secretary while she’s having a meal or is at home, disrupting her entire neighborhood at her private home; the next steps are only more dangerous.
 
The thesis of my book “Outrage Inc” [1] an individual can be reasoned with, but a mob, especially an angry or frightened mob, cannot:
  • Rational thought is overridden.
  • No single person would smash a police car if they were simply walking down the street, but someone does if a crowd of people are being whipped into a frenzy by protests or even celebrations.
  • No one man would open fire on a baseball team of Congressmen while they practiced, but one did after months of speeches and stories about how those Republicans were working to pass legislation that would lead to the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans annually.
  • Hearing that the President of the United States is well on his way to becoming the next Hitler, you almost have an obligation to act.
  • When you’re whipped into a frenzy fed by dishonest reporters spinning half-truths into concentration camps, it’s only a matter of time before another person snaps at members of the party enabling the next despotic monster. It’s not only inevitable, it’s the objective. These aren’t fringe elements anymore, these are journalists and pundits in good standing on CNN and MSNBC spreading these lies. They are being parroted and acted up on by an angry mob simply waiting for a spark, or worse, an opportunity.
All the while the Democratic party leadership is silent while Maxine Waters goes on a hysterical tirade asking party faithful to attack Pres Trump’s staff …  There may be no coming back from this ledge, it seems we’re well past the point of no return.

I hope I’m wrong; but having spent a year digging into how this liberal machine is designed to whip the unstable into a frenzy. The one thing I did find was how Sunlight is the best disinfectant and exposing the machine to the public might be the only way to stop it. If there is a way to stop it.

Muslims Terrorists Murder Eighty Six Christians;
​and Burn 50 Homes

Islamic Terrorist Fulani herdsmen slaughter Christian farmers
6-23-18, BaptistPress -- At least 86 Christians were killed as Nomadic Islaic herdsmen have taken land by various means, either posing as settlers, attacking and terrorizing native landowners, initiating faulty land deals, or attacking farmers who refuse to accept purchase offers. Following the forceful and insidious land grab, the Fulani become mixed settlers of farmers and herders, growing staple food commodities for market and grazing surrounding lands.  Fulani typically rape women displaced and widowed by the violence. Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, himself an ethnic Fulani, has been accused of neglecting to address the violence. After the Plateau attacks, Buhari urged villagers to be calm, promised justice and said he would work to prevent further violence.

Who will protect Nigeria’s northern Christians?
2-4-17, Spectator.co.uk -- Another day in northern Nigeria, another Christian village reeling from an attack by the Muslim Fulani herdsmen who used to be their neighbors — and who are now cleansing them from the area. The locals daren’t collect the freshest bodies. Some who tried earlier have already been killed, spotted by the waiting militia and hacked down or shot. The Fulani are watching everything closely from the surrounding mountains. Every week, their progress across the northern states of Plateau and Kaduna continues. Every week, more massacres — another village burned, its church razed, its inhabitants slaughtered, raped or chased away.
Muslims have been slaughtering Christians in Nigeria for years. Few Christians survive in northern Nigeria and Muslims there have imposed Shari’ah law in most of the northern states. They are now attacking Christians in the south. Every week, there are more massacres, but nobody seems to mind — not even their own government. Muslims regularly kidnap, rape, and slaughter Christians. ​More here and here

​BEHOLD THE BEAST
MATHEMATICAL PRECISION OF PROPHECY
Ellis Skolfield, Installment 5 of 12

Picture
Picture
6-25-18, Daniel and John's prophecies were written over 500 years apart, yet the two books unite with mathematical precision - both pinning the year 688 AD - that was hundreds of years in John's future and over a thousand years in Daniel's future!

When Khalifah Omar entered Jerusalem in 639 AD, he was met by Sophronius, Bishop of the Jerusalem Church, who showed him around the city. Seeing the temple mount (then in rubble), Omar declared that he was going to build a memorial to Muhammad on the original site of the temple of God. Sophronius exclaimed in horror,  "Verily, this is the Abomination of Desolation as spoken of by Daniel the prophet, and it now stands in the holy place".   Though Sophronius was a very old man of about 80, Khalifah Omar put him in prison and to forced labor, the severities of which killed him." -- Jerry Landay, "The Dome of the Rock" [1]
 
Is there an explanation as to why we couldn't see the perfect mathematical relationships between these two prophets before this "time"? Yes.* God said:
  • Daniel 12:4,9  But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, [even] to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. v9  And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words [are] closed up and sealed till the time of the end.    
Then in verse 12 we see Daniel's 1290 days verse, and see if we can confirm the method we used, with Daniel's 1335 "days":
 
  • Daniel 12:12: Blessed [is] he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
  • ​Tanach:   Dan 12:12: Fortunate is he who waits and reaches days of one thousand, three hundred, and thirty-five.
1335 x .9857 (O.T. prophetic year "language" conversion) = 1315.9 - 583 BC = 732.9 AD.  

Picture
​ The Battle of Tours, France took place in 732 AD.  This battle was fought exactly 100 years after Mohammed's death.  The Battle of Tours is widely considered to be the most important battle of the entire Christian era.  Charles "Martel" (the hammer), against astronomical odds, defeated the Islamic army, and the spread of Islam, in its near conquest of the whole known world, as it headed up through Europe during the Islamic First Jihad.  Indeed blessed was he who patiently waited and made it through the First Jihad, without converting to Islam, or denying his Lord and Savior. History Jewish Library
 This epic battle was the turning point marking the zenith of the Islamic onslaught delivering the mortal wound (Revelation 13:3) to the spearhead of the invading forces, and killing the literal head of the advancing army Emir Abd er Rahman.  "Without his leadership and guidance, the other commanders were unable to even agree on a commander to lead them back into battle the following morning. The effect of the death of Abdul Rahman on both Islamic and world history was profound."  According to one unidentified Arab, 'That army went through all places like a desolating storm.' sacking and capturing the city of Bordeaux, and then defeating the army of Duke Odo of Aquitaine at the Battle of the River Garonne — where the western chroniclers state, 'God alone knows the number of the slain'—[3] and Odo fled to Charles Martel, seeking help."
