The War in Georgia
Gog And Magog Are Gathering Momentum
The long prophesied military cataclysm that is described in Ezekiel 38 is moving ever closer to fulfillment. The famous prophecy, heavily cited by Christian prophecy teachers everywhere, speaks of a massive military attack on the nation of Israel in "the latter years" (Ezekiel 38:8). The nations involved are relatively easy to identify - with the exception of the instigator of the event who is known as Gog and Magog.
For many decades, Christian prophecy teachers, largely following the ancient historian Genesius, have sought to connect these mysterious names with Russia. When Hal Lindsey's epic Late Great Planet Earth broke every sales record in the Christian book world by selling over 50 million copies, he almost single-handedly created the now fossilized tradition that Russia is Gog.
Two other mysterious names in the military coalition that will meet their Waterloo on "the mountains of Israel" (verse 8) are said to be Meschech and Tubal. While their confederates Iran, Ethiopia, and Libya (Persia, Cush, & Put respectively in the King James Version) are readily identifiable, these two names Meschech and Tubal are closely linked to Gog.
Following a dubious linguistic theory, the paperback writers of pop prophecy have almost universally claimed that Meschech and Tubal are Moscow and Tobolsk - again pointing the theological finger at the Soviet Union. When Late Great was released in 1970, the Cold War was raging and the identification seemed to be exceedingly probable - notwithstanding the fact that several dissident scholars such as Dr. Edwin Yamauchi of Miami University flatly stated the names could not refer to Russia, Moscow, and Tobolsk.
In the case of Late Great's Hal Lindsey and his close associate writer Chuck Missler, the paperback rapture writer's response was to plagiarize portions of Yamauchi's scholarly work Foes From The Northern Frontier, and then twist the good Doctor's research into the false conclusion that Gog and Magog is Russia. So they not only stole his work, but they then used the plagiarized material to reach a different conclusion!
Lindsey and Missler were caught by the LA Times, and pulled the stolen title (The Magog Factor) from the market, but the modern fiction of Russia as the great invader continues to be widely propagated through books, tapes, tracts, videos, and even popular songs - such as Maranatha's pop anthem The Cossack Song - where the lyric laments "I wouldn't want to be a Cossack...headed down Jerusalem way."
As the Rapture Cult provided the unscriptural twist that described the great escape from the consequences of the devastating war described in Ezekiel 38, the media writers have continued to misidentify the primary players that will bring about what can only be described as a nuclear holocaust in this hideous conflagration that is just around the corner.
In 1992, as I studied the prophecy for a chapter in my prophecy book Beyond Babylon, the Lord quickened in my spirit the fact that when the text states "Gog of the land of Magog," it wasn't speaking of Gog as a person that came from the land of Magog - it's just the opposite. Gog is the name of the land, and Magog is the proper name that comes from the land of Gog. After carefully studying each of the place names, I realized that Gog is the former Soviet republic of Georgia.
After the Soviet Union restructured in the Gorbachev-Reagan era, the Russian pronunciation of the capital of Georgia - Tiflis - was dropped, and the nation took back its ancestral name of Tblisi. In the Georgian dialect, the ethnic suffix isi means "the land of." Furthermore, in that same ancient dialect, which is unique among linguistic groups, the consonants T and B are specifically separated by a gutteral U sound.
The actual verbalization of Tblisi is "Tuh-ooh-ball-ee-see." In short, the name literally translates as "the land of Tubal." This is the capital of the modern republic of Georgia.
Further research showed that the other group that settled in the same region thousands of years ago were known as the Meskhet - or the Meskhetians. During the Russian domination of Georgia in the 19th century, Moscow named their military headquarters that was located adjacent to the Georgian capital Mtzkheta. Again, by removing the suffix, we see the name Meschech has survived in Georgian and Russian.
Scholars have long known that the Georgians are descended from the Iberians which have a presence in the modern era in several regions including the South of Spain. If you wish to take a commercial flight in that area of the world, for example, you'll probably buy a ticket on Iberian Airlines. A recent scholarly treatment on the origin of Georgia that was published by Oxford University Press states "The Jews of ancient Georgia were doubtless aware of the Jewish identification of Iberia with the Tubal of the Old Testament" (Georgia In Antiquity, David Braund, 1994).
Josephus tells us the Iberi were descended from a son of Japheth - whose son was named Magog. It's fascinating to realize that the name Gog is widely widely utilized in Georgian - albeit under a more affectionate fashion that is known as Gogi. I've eaten at a Russian restaurant here in Southern Oregon that is owned by a Georgian with that very name. Indeed, we recently learned from a Christian missionary that has spent 10 years in Georgia that the Georgian pronunciation of Gog and Magog is Gogi da Magogi. In short, Gog is Georgia.
What is significant in all of this is that Georgia is presently ruled by Eduard Shevardnadze - a native Georgian who, because of his clever political abilities, was nicknamed The Fox by his constituents. Shevardnadze was installed by the CIA after the intelligence agency overthrew the rightfully elected nationalist President Zvhiad Ghamsakhurdiya.
Shevardnadze, the former number 2 man in the Soviet Union under Gorbachev, is carefully seeking to integrate the vast numbers of surrounding Islamic groups into a cohesive identity - while simultaneously keeping Russia's influence at arm's length as he cozies up to the American oil interests. Georgia, with an Eastern Orthodox background, is completely surrounded by massive numbers of Islamic men - many of which are traversing the nation as they move back and forth between the Islamic militant strongholds of Chechenya, Dagestan, and Abhkazia.
It is now believed there are significant numbers of Al Qaeda and other Moslem militia groups based in an area of Georgia known as the Pankisi Gorge. In fact, about a month ago, Igor Ivanov, the head of the Russian Foreign ministry declared that Osama bin Laden was probably hiding in the Pankisi Gorge - in Georgia.
In the midst of this political turmoil is the staggering wealth that is being pumped through major oil pipelines through Georgia. The various Western multinational oil interests, including the Bush family, are deeply invested in the trans Caucasian oil routes that also include Afghanistan. Said to be the purest crude on the entire planet, the oil reserves now coming through Georgia are being positioned to replace the oil reserves that will be taken out of service from the Arab producers that are scheduled to be eliminated during the coming war with Israel (see Daniel 7:8).
Meanwhile, according to Science Magazine, a United Nations nuclear watchdog group has sent a team of experts to "to seize two portable nuclear devices found in Georgia's breakaway province of Abkhazia that it fears could be used to make bombs." At about this same time, American troops were quietly dispatched in a very low profile mission to train Georgian troops.
All of this came about because two Georgian men recently became seriously ill after finding some odd looking components in a forest. The strange finding turned out to be radioactive materiel that alarmed Western nuclear experts that there may be nuclear devices in Georgia. Thus, a recent article in the British Guardian blared the following headline West Scours Georgia For Nuclear Triggers.
Incredibly, the major American media has completely ignored the story.
The reason all of this is significant is because of Ezekiel. The venerable Hebrew prophet tells us that after Gog and Magog attack Israel from the North, a nuclear conflagration ensues in which the land is so toxic that no-once can enter for a period of 7 months. The lengthy prophecy speaks of an enormously destructive battle that will result in so many bodies that they will all be buried in a mass grave due to their apparent toxicity.
In reading this ominous passage, we see that every state mentioned is militantly Islamic with a declared animosity towards Israel - except for Georgia. Thus, the political intrigue that has surrounded Shevardnadze and his known CIA ties to former master spy Bill Casey and others becomes highly suspect in what would appear to be yet another carefully manipulated war induced by the globalist cabal that has designs on world dominion.
As the church falsely continues to preach an easy escape followed by a Russian move into the Middle East, the sordid reality continues to point to American and European globalists that continue to use war as an instrument of foreign policy in order to further their ungodly aims at a universal dominion, power, and astonishing wealth. This coming cataclysm is but another step towards the global tyranny that awaits the entire planet as the Satanic conspirators continue to mask their true designs - a one world government, ruling from Jerusalem, headed by the Antichrist.

Does 8/1/08 Eclipse Foretell War?

Aliens are Our Brothers

Aliens are our brothers: Vatican
There is no contradiction between faith in God and believing that aliens may live somewhere in the universe, according to the Vatican’s chief astronomer, the Associated Press reports.
In the interview with the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano, the Rev. Jose Gabriel Funes is quoted as saying he doesn’t rule out the possibility that life could have developed on other planets.
"Just as we consider earthly creatures as 'a brother,' and 'sister,' why should we not talk about an 'extra-terrestrial brother'? It would still be part of creation," said Funes. "Thinking otherwise would be like ‘putting limits’ on God’s omnipotence."
Funes discussed the relationship between science and faith, saying there was no contradiction between the two.
He also urged the Church and the scientific community to leave behind any divisions.

I began speaking out about the UFO conspiracy in 1997 after I had my first Alien Invasion dream/vision (Revelation 12). At that time I knew very little. As I spoke out on these things, of course I was ridiculed. At that time, my message was "Aliens are Demons". That is according to what I saw in reference to an invasion and the fulfillment of Revelation 12.
However, since that time, I have a clearer understanding of other dimensional beings, what we call angels or extraterrestrials and I understand that there are both good and evil. I have not been shown much about good angels as I suppose that it is the calling of others, whom I respect. However, in terms of the evil angels (intrusive other dimensional beings, ETs), I have been given much insight).
As we approach closer to their arrival or open appearance, we are beginning to hear more about them in the media. However, do not be deceived, there are both good and evil ETs. It is the evil ones with which we need to be extra concerned.

Chinese River Mysteriously Turns Red
By AUDRA ANG
The Associated Press
Monday, October 23, 2006; 9:05 PM
BEIJING -- A half-mile section of China's Yellow River turned "red and smelly" after an unknown discharge was poured into it from a sewage pipe, state media said Monday.
The incident in Lanzhou, a city of 2 million people in western Gansu province, follows a string of industrial accidents that have poisoned major rivers in China over the last year, forcing several cities to shut down their water systems.
A local resident stands near a section of China's Yellow River which has turned red after pollution caused by discharge from a sewage pipe in Lanzhou, in western Gansu province Monday Oct. 23, 2006. A kilometer-long section of the river turned

A kilometer-long section of the river turned "red and smelly" after a sewage pipe discharged red liquid on Sunday. Environmental protection officials took samples and were trying to determine whether the sewage was toxic. (AP Photo/EyePress) (AP)
It wasn't immediately clear what was tainting the section of the Yellow River. Environmental protection officials took samples and were trying to determine whether the sewage was toxic, the official Xinhua news agency said.
"Residents were alarmed to see a sewage pipe pouring red water into the country's second longest river" on Sunday between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., the agency said.
A news photo from the local paper showed a resident in the city center by a stretch of the river _ a drinking water source for millions _ that was rose-colored instead of the usual milky brown. Other photos showed patches of bright red and pink.
An official from Yellow River Water Resource Committee in Lanzhou confirmed the pollution. He said they were still analyzing the sample and had not determined what caused it. Like many Chinese officials, he gave only his family name, Wang.
Environmental protection has taken on new urgency for Chinese leaders following a November 2005 chemical spill in the Songhua River in northeastern China which forced the city of Harbin to shut down its water supply for days and sent toxins flowing into Russia.
China's cities are among the world's smoggiest, and the government says its major rivers, canals and lakes are badly polluted by industrial, agricultural and household pollution.
Hundreds of millions of people live without adequate supplies of clean drinking water. Throughout the country, protests have erupted over complaints by farmers that uncontrolled discharges by factories are ruining crops and poisoning water supplies.
"The Yellow River is the mother river of our country," said one bulletin board posting Monday on Sina.com, a major Chinese news Web site. "See how it has been ruined!"
Said another: "Let the mayor of Lanzhou drink the water and then they will immediately have measures in place to deal with the environmental pollution."
Kang Mingke, an official with the city's environment protection bureau, said there were no chemical plants located nearby, according to Xinhua. He said the red water could have come from central heating companies who dye their hot water to prevent people from diverting it for their own use, the news agency said.
John Hocevar, an oceans specialist for Greenpeace USA, said that the photos he had seen of the spill might indicate a "red tide," a burst of toxic plankton in the water, spurred by the presence of nutrient-rich waste from the sewage spill.
Alternatively, he said industrial toxins could have caused the red color. "It's too early to say what's exactly in this," he said. "It could be just about anything."
Noting that local government officials have said there is no industry in the area, Hocevar said if the discoloration is the result of industrial waste, it would have to come from illegal dumping.
"For a spill this size to have this kind of effect, it would have to be illegal," he said.

The Doomsday Seed Vault
By DOUG MELLGREN, Associated Press Writer 40 minutes ago
LONGYEARBYEN, Norway - A "doomsday" seed vault built to protect millions of food crops from climate change, wars and natural disasters opened Tuesday deep within an Arctic mountain in the remote Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard.
ADVERTISEMENT
"The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is our insurance policy," Norway's Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg told delegates at the opening ceremony. "It is the Noah's Ark for securing biological diversity for future generations."
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso and 2004 Nobel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai of Kenya were among the dozens of guests who had bundled up for the ceremony inside the vault, about 425 feet deep inside a frozen mountain.
"This is a frozen Garden of Eden," Barroso said.
The vault will serve as a backup for hundreds of other seed banks worldwide. It has the capacity to store 4.5 million seed samples from around the world and shield them from man-made and natural disasters.
Dug into the permafrost of the mountain, it has been built to withstand an earthquake or a nuclear strike.
Norway owns the vault in Svalbard, a frigid archipelago about 620 miles from the North Pole. It paid $9.1 million for construction, which took less than a year. Other countries can deposit seeds without charge and reserve the right to withdraw them upon need.
The operation is funded by the Global Crop Diversity Trust, which was founded by the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization and Biodiversity International, a Rome-based research group.
"Crop diversity will soon prove to be our most potent and indispensable resource for addressing climate change, water and energy supply constraints, and for meeting the food needs of a growing population," said Cary Fowler, head of the Global Crop Diversity Trust.
Svalbard is cold, but giant air conditioning units have chilled the vault further to -0.4 Fahrenheit, a temperature at which experts say many seeds could last for 1,000 years.
Stoltenberg and Maathai delivered the first box of seeds to the vault during the opening ceremony — a container of rice seeds from 104 countries.
"This is unique. This is very visionary. It is a precaution for the future," Maathai, a Crop Diversity Trust board member, told The Associated Press after the ceremony.
The seeds are packed in silvery foil containers — as many as 500 in each sample — and placed on blue and orange metal shelves inside three 32-foot-by-88-foot storage chambers. Each vault can hold 1.5 million sample packages of all types of crop seeds, from carrots to wheat.
Construction leader Magnus Bredeli-Tveiten said the vault is designed to withstand earthquakes — successfully tested by a 6.2-magnitude temblor off Svalbard last week — and even a direct nuclear strike.
Many other seed banks are in less protected areas. For example, war wiped out seed banks in Iraq and Afghanistan, and one in the Philippines was flooded in the wake of a typhoon in 2006.

Hurricane Dean 2007
Hurricane Dean, Now a Category 5 Storm
Mexico's state oil company, Petroleos de Mexico, said it was evacuating all of its more than 14,000 offshore workers in the southern Gulf of Mexico, which includes the giant Cantarell oil field. Dozens of historically significant Mayan sites also were emptied.
Dean - which has killed at least 12 people across the Caribbean - quickly picked up strength after brushing Jamaica and the Cayman Islands.
By 8:35 p.m. EDT, it had sustained winds of 160 mph and was centered about 210 miles south-southeast of Tulum, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center. Category 5 storms - capable of catastrophic damage - are rare with only three have hit the U.S. since record-keeping began.
The eye was expected to make landfall early Tuesday morning near Chetumal, about 80 miles south of Tulum.
Cancun seemed likely to be spared a direct hit, but visitors abandoned its swank hotels to swarm outbound flights. Officials evacuated more rustic lodgings farther south, where Dean - which has killed at least 12 people across the Caribbean - was expected to smash ashore early Tuesday.
Eric Morovich of Orange County, Calif., waited outside Cancun's airport after trying unsuccessfully to book a ferry, rent a boat and charter an airplane. "The next option is swimming, I guess," he joked.
A hurricane warning was in affect from Cancun all the way south through Belize. All hospitals were closed in Belize City, the country's biggest, and authorities urged residents to leave, saying Dean is too strong for their shelters. Meteorologists said a storm surge of 12 to 18 feet was possible at the storm's center.
The storm was expected to slash across the Yucatan and emerge in the Gulf of Campeche, where Petroleos de Mexico decided Monday to shut down production on the offshore rigs that extract most of the nation's oil.
President Felipe Calderon said he would cut short a trip to Canada where he is meeting with President Bush and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
"Given (the hurricane's) progression and dangerousness, I have decided to return to Mexico soon," Calderon said in Ottawa. "I'll personally oversee the aid effort in case of a disaster."
Shutting the 407 oil wells in the Campeche Sound will result in a production loss of 2.7 million barrels of oil and 2.6 billion cubic feet of natural gas a day, Pemex said. Of that, about 1.7 million barrels of oil a day is exported from three Gulf ports, where Pemex was loading the final tankers before shutting them as well.
Central Mexico was next on the storm's path, though the outer bands were likely to bring rain, flooding and gusty winds to south Texas, already saturated after an unusually rainy summer.
At the southern tip of Texas, officials urged residents to evacuate ahead of the storm. "Our mission is very simple. It's to get people out of the kill zone, to get people out of the danger area, which is the coastline of Texas," said Johnny Cavazos, Cameron County's chief emergency director.

Exorcism in Arizona
Signs of the Times
Officers responded to reports that an exorcism was taking place at a home in Arizona on July 30, 2007. They entered a bedroom of the home to find a 3 year old girl being strangled by her grandfather who was covered in blood. Officers also found the child's mother naked and covered in blood in the room.
After hearing screams coming from the room, the police removed a mattress that had been placed against the bedroom door and tazered the grandfather who was later pronounced dead.
"The purpose was to release demons from this very young child," said Sgt. Joel Tranter.
The mother was not arrested, but police are considering criminal charges, according to Sgt. Joel Tranter.

This is a very bizarre story. What we don't realize is that stories like this happen every day. I once read a similar story where FBI officers had entered a home where a human sacrifice was taking place in some kind of witchcraft ceremony also involving cannibalism and a decapitation.
The most interesting question is what causes human beings to act out in such bizarre ways? What should our reaction be? Honestly, there are those of us who believe that there is a much deeper meaning to these types of events and is evidence to the fact that there is something very inhumane or perhaps non-human about a great segment of our society. Just food for thought.

Hogzilla II - 1000 pound Boar
In this photo released by Melynne Stone, Jamison Stone, 11, poses with a wild pig he killed near Delta, Ala., May 3, 2007. Stone's father says the hog weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. If claims of the animal's size are true, it would be larger than ``Hogzilla,'' the huge hog killed in Georgia in 2004. (Melynne Stone/AP Photo)
May 29, 2007
ABC News
Jamison Stone, 11, says he spotted the wild hog cooling off in a swamp. He says it was as big as a cow.
"He was snarling, you know popping his jaws as a threat, and that's when I took my shot," Jamison said.
Jamison, hunting with his father, stalked the boar for three hours, he said. He finally brought the beast down with a .50-caliber revolver.
And how big was this beast? His father says the wild hog was more than nine feet long and tipped the scales at 1,051 pounds.
But after The Associated Press printed a story and Jamison posted a picture of him and his "monster pig" on his Web site, the blogosphere started buzzing: Was it a hog or a hoax?
One blogger suggested the photo was doctored, writing: "I'm thinking there's someone sitting behind a computer out there having a bit of a giggle at everyone's expense."
"A bunch of people could not believe it. Lots of my friends said, 'You didn't kill something like this,' until they saw the Web site," Jamison said.
Lots of Sausage
Kirk Deeter, a contributor to Field & Stream magazine, says that for now he is siding with Jamison.
"There's always gonna be naysayers in situations like this," Deeter said. "My gut reaction is it's an enormous hog. An 11-year-old kid shot a 1,051-pound pig."
If true, Jamison's trophy kill would be bigger than even "Hogzilla," an almost mythical 800-pound wild boar killed in Georgia in 2004. It was eventually unearthed by a National Geographic forensics team.
"We knew ours was bigger so it was a big deal. It was a bigger pig," Mike Stone, Jamison's father, said.
So another legend gathers steam, and this wild boar may end up in the record books.
For now, it's on the dinner table and there are plenty of leftovers.
"We've got sausage, a lot of sausage," Jamison said.

My Comments
This is very unusual to me. The reporters of this news article did not answer the obvious questions. What in the world could make a pig that big? How unusual is it? Why don't we see more pigs this size? Where are the scientist's statements and the researchers? If anyone finds more info, please forward. Thank you!

Great Pics - Manmade UFO
Not too long ago, I had a dream about what I called a Manmade UFO. What I saw was a high tech military antigravity flying machine. The power source was generated from a wheel within another wheel spinning in opposite directions at high velocity. It was somewhat metallic in nature and had a U.S. Military Seal on it. It appeared to be doing surveillance maneuvers near a mountain side.
Since having this dream, I have received numerous confirmations that such machines exist and that I am accurate in conveying the power source. I have just come across some very good photos of what I believe to be the same thing. The only difference between this one and the one I saw, is the one in this picture has a tail and the one I saw did not and it had a little bit more mass. However, it was flat on the bottom and the top, was circular in shape and whizzed and spun.

880 FREEWAY COLLAPSE WAS A HARBINGER
Commuters face nightmare a day after Bay area freeway collapse
OAKLAND, Calif. (Map, News) - The promise of a nightmarish morning commute led many Bay Area residents to take advantage of free public transportation or work from home Monday, one day after a fiery tanker crash caused the collapse of a heavily trafficked section of freeway.
Westbound traffic into the city largely flowed as usual Monday morning, except for drivers slowing on interchange lanes headed to the Bay Bridge to look at the damage.
But officials warned the afternoon drive would bring bigger headaches as traffic leaving the city is diverted away from the collapsed eastbound segment.
An elevated section of highway that funnels traffic from the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge to a number of key freeways was destroyed early Sunday after flames from an overturned gasoline truck caused part of one overpass to collapse onto another.
Authorities predicted that overall the crash would cause the worst disruption for commuters since the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake damaged the Bay Bridge itself. The sight of the soaring freeway twisted into a fractured mass of steel and concrete was reminiscent of that quake's damage.
"The most worrisome thing is the afternoon commute coming out of San Francisco toward the maze," said Jeff Weiss, a spokesman for the California Department of Transportation, "because the traffic from the Bay Bridge fans out from across three freeways. Taking away two-thirds of the capacity is really going to cause a bottleneck."

What is the future event that is being signified? It is the many prophecies that have been received regarding the collapse of major bay area bridge, freeway and a powerful earthquake.

Dear Brethren
Isaiah 24: 19-20, "The earth is violently broken, the earth is split open, the earth is shaken exceedingly. The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall totter like a hut; Its transgression shall be heavy upon it, and it will fall, and not rise again."
While I was in Romania, one night after my devotions I went to bed, exhausted and in need of much sleep having ridden in a truck all day delivering food to families. It had been a hard day, and we had to push the truck out of snow banks and ditches more than once. My body ached, and all I really wanted was to get some good rest.
As I fell into a deep sleep I had a dream. I dreamt I was in a hotel room, asleep, when the bed began to shake violently. I knew what was happening right away. Having lived in California in the 1980’s I was keenly aware of what an earthquake felt like. Suddenly I was no longer in bed, but high above San Francisco bay, looking down on the golden gate bridge. As I watched it, it began to shudder, break apart, and fall into the waters below. I continued to watch the devastation, seeing buildings collapse, and masses of people trying to find shelter. Then a voice spoke out of the heavens, a voice I had never heard before, a voice of great authority. “I will shake this land from its foundations, such as the eyes of this generation has not seen. The world will stand in awe, and tremble in fear, as even the very geography of this nation will be transformed. My wrath is ready to be poured out, for sin has overrun My temple.”
In my dream I began to weep, not due to the devastation I was seeing, but due to the great power of the voice I was hearing. I woke up trembling, unable to breathe, and tired as I was I could not go to sleep again.
Shortly before sunrise, my phone began to ring, and when I answered it, it was my brother Daniel. “Are you awake?” he asked, “Yes”, I answered.
“I had a dream last night,” he continued, “it was a terrible dream. I dreamt of a big earthquake coming to America.”
When I told him I’d had the same dream, he was silent for some time then said, “I’m coming over so we could pray.”
He had just arrived at my apartment, when my phone rang again. It was a brother from 200 kilometers away, who is prophetically gifted, and has spoken many words over me that have come to pass.
“Is this Mike?” when I answered in the affirmative, he said, “I had a dream last night, and I felt I needed to call and tell you about it. I dreamt of a terrible earthquake in your country, I saw a big bridge that just collapsed I saw destruction as I have never seen before. Does this mean anything to you?”
It took me some time to find something to say. I was speechless, and could find no words. On the same night, three different people had the same dream, with the same vivid details. Knowing that the brother had a prayer group that met nightly, I asked him to remember America in their prayers whenever they prayed, and he said he would. Before he hung up he said, “Mike I’ve had many dreams in my life, the Lord willed it so, but none has scared me as the dream I had last night. Only God can protect someone through something like that, there is no other hope but to run to Him.”
No matter what may come upon this land, we know that God abides with His faithful, keeping them, guiding them, and protecting them. Events will begin to unfold upon this earth, that will make even the mightiest of men tremble in fear, but knowing that we have a shelter from the storm, a sovereign God who watches over us, fearlessly we press on faithful in all that He asks of us.
Psalm 91:7-11, "A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look, and see the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your habitation, no evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways."

EARTHQUAKE PLANNING SCENARIO for A MAGNITUDE 7.5
EARTHQUAKE ON THE HAYWARD FAULT, SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
By KARL V. STEINBRUGGE, Structural Engineer
El Cerrito, California
Trans-bay bridges
The trans-bay bridges will be temporarily closed due to ground and structural failures at the bridge approaches. Roadway clearance, emergency repairs, de-tours, and bridge inspections will preclude or severely restrict use of these structures during the initial post-earthquake hours. The Oakland Bay Bridge will be effectively closed due to major damage at the east approach interchange and northward along Interstate 80/Route 17; the Richmond-San Rafael, San Mateo, and Dumbarton crossings should be available to limited emergency traffic in less than 36 hours. The Golden Gate Bridge will remain open, but traffic will be severely limited by damage at the southerly bridge approaches.
Major freeway routes
All of the major freeway routes to the East Bay from the east and south either cross the fault or are otherwise vulnerable to damage by strong shaking and ground failures. Major routes subject to surface fault offset (up to 10 feet) include Interstate 80 at San Pablo, Interstate 580 in East Oakland, Interstate 680 at Fremont and south to Milpitas, Route 24 west of the Caldecott Tunnel and most of Route 13 (Warren Freeway). Ground failures due to liquefaction and strong ground shaking may cause major damage along Route 17 from Richmond to San Jose.
Virtually all older freeway bridges in the area have been refitted to increase their resistance to shaking. Nevertheless, damage to and collapse of some of these structures is to be expected. Access to and travel within the East Bay will be difficult and limited to emergency traffic. Most principal routes on the San Francisco and Marin peninsulas and western portion of the greater San Jose area will be open subject to major delays and detours.

Feds eye control of vitamins, supplements – even water!
LIFE WITH BIG BROTHER
Feds eye control of vitamins, supplements – even water!
FDA looks to regulate natural substances as drugs, with prescriptions from doctors
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted: April 24, 2007
9:30 p.m. Eastern
By Bob Unruh
Source: WorldNet Daily
FDA Commissioner Andrew von Echenbach
The Food and Drug Administration says vitamins, supplements, herbs and other natural substances, including water when it is used to "treat" dehydration, should be classified as drugs, and opponents have only until April 30 to express their concern about the proposals under Docket No. 2006D-0480.
The government agency under the direction of Andrew C. von Eschenbach, who became commissioner in 2006, also has put its "Complementary and Alternative Medicine Products and Their Regulation by the Food and Drug Administration" on a fast track for implementation.
But parents' groups, natural remedy interests, food and herb businesses and others are horrified. A group called Gentle Christian Mothers alerted its constituency in no uncertain terms.
"Please Read!!! The FDA is trying to regulate all things that are considered by them to be treatment for disease. They want to regulate vitamins, herbs, alternative therapies (things like hot stone therapy), even down to juices and holy water," the warning said. "It might mean having to go to a doctor or medical professional for vitamins."
The website noted that among likely developments if the FDA has its way:
Growing and selling common garden herbs will get you arrested as a drug dealer.
Massage oils and handheld massagers will be regulated as "medical devices."
Vegetable juice will be regulated as a drug.
Weight machines will be regulated as "medical devices" and require FDA approval before being sold or used.
Raw sprouts and other anti-cancer foods will be regulated as drugs.
Bottled water that "treats" dehydration will be regulated as a drug.
Massage therapists who use hot rocks as part of their therapy will have the ROCKS regulated as medical devices! (It's true. The FDA will actually look at a pile of rocks and declare, "Those are medical devices!")
Foods, supplements, vitamins and homeopathic remedies will disappear from store shelves, pending FDA "review."
Vitamin store owners will be arrested and prosecuted for "practicing medicine without a license."
"This could be potentially devastating, not just to my business but to any business relating to supplements," Sophy Winnick, a Felton, Calif., mother of four who has been selling Youngevity products for 10 years, told the Santa Cruz Sentinel. "People better get on the horn about this."
The FDA's "draft guidance" on the issue first appeared in December, but federal officials said it was printed in the Federal Register on Feb. 27, prompting the growing storm of protest.
The FDA has reported that approximately one-third of all adult Americans have reported participating in or using some form of "complementary and alternative medicine" and officials estimate nutritional supplement sales total about $5 billion a year in America.
On the NewsTarget website, self-described "Health Ranger" Mike Adams posted one of the alerts.
"What this means to consumers, according to the proposal as outlined in FDA Docket number 2006D-0480, is that things like vitamins and herbs would be controlled by the FDA, and could possibly require prescriptions from a naturopath, herbologist or some other physician, all of which would require you to pay a health insurance company and contribute to the already back-breaking cost of healthcare in America," he wrote.
"There are those who do not trust the U.S. government to act in the interest of its citizens over the interests of pharmaceutical companies and health insurance providers," he said. "Those people have good reason to feel this way, and the amount of dangerous – DEADLY, even – pharmaceutical drugs that get recalled … is testament to the fact that human beings can be used as guinea pigs because the FDA allows the pharmaceutical industry to release drugs that haven't been properly tested."
As WND recently reported, Merck and Co. had been donating to state legislators across the nation who in return were working to require young girls to be given Merck's $400 vaccine that prevents a virus that is spread only through sexual contact.
WND also has reported on the mandatory anthrax shots for members of the military, even though they had not been fully tested, and the possibility that government officials also could order civilians to be vaccinated.
"This [new] proposal would allow the FDA to control your access to 'alternatives' to the broken, profit-driven, corrupt pharmaceutical industry here in the U.S.," Adams wrote.
"When it comes to health freedom, this is the FDA's end game," he said. "They tried to sneak this under the radar, but word got out and now the natural health community is up in arms over this rule.
"This move by the FDA is designed to once and for all destroy the 1994 DSHEA law that has made supplements 'legal' while eliminating nutritional supplements and natural medicine from the United States, ensuring monopoly profits and control by drug companies and the FDA," he said.
"Under these proposed guidelines, FDA 'experts' (the same corrupt officials who re-approved Vioxx after it killed over 50,000 Americans) will decide whether herbs, supplements, vitamins or simple devices like massage stones are to be regulated as drugs and medical devices," Adams continued. "If the FDA experts, in their infinite wisdom, decide that these things are to be reclassified, they will essentially be outlawed, stripped from the shelves, and regulated out of existence. Anyone who dares to manufacture, promote or sell such products may be branded a criminal and rounded up by armed FDA agents who have a well established history of suppressing natural medicine."
"This is not a drill. It really is time to be alarmed," he said. "Nothing else I've written about this year is as important as this sinister plot to destroy natural medicine and force the American population to resort to dangerous prescription medications sold at monopoly prices under a system of medical tyranny."
For example, he cited wording directly from the FDA plans: "…if a person decides to produce and sell raw vegetable juice for use in juice therapy to promote optimal health … [and] if the juice therapy is intended for use as part of a disease treatment regiment…, the vegetable juice would also be subject to regulation as a drug."
Keep in mind, he said, the FDA is the agency that "openly allows the mass poisoning of the public with cancer-causing food additives such as sodium nitrite."
According to his website, Adams suffered from degenerative disease, was nearly obese and diabetic by 30. He became a student of nutrition and natural therapies and gave up all pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter drugs, caffeine and pursued a natural foods diet with exercise.
He lost 50 pounds, his diabetes symptoms vanished and his blood pressured reached 105/60, so he began a writing and teaching career on his own transformation.
An essay by Roger Wicke at Rocky Mountain Hi Herbal noted, "The unstated purpose of the FDA, and similar organizations in many other countries, is and always has been the protection of major pharmaceutical company profits. Expensive testing protocols act as a way to keep drugs and herbs within the control of the international cartels. While such tests may make sense for newly synthesized drugs with no track record in cultural tradition or popular usage, they are inappropriate for herb and food products, especially those with a long history of usage."
The FDA, in its announcement, said the federal government has been investigating and monitoring "complementary and alternative medicine" since 1992. It also said "depending on the … therapy or practice, a product used … may be subject to regulation."
Secondly, it noted, the law does not exempt alternative medicine products from regulation.
Alan Stang, writing on etherzone.com, was a little more blunt.
"Recently we wrote about the 72-year-old Florida grandmother whom the Food and Drug Administration Nazis are charging with a couple of felonies and some misdemeanors for helping cancer victims get the laetrile (Vitamin B-17) they need," he wrote. "Now here come these same offspring of unmarried female canines, with a scheme that may outlaw dietary supplements…"
He said where such laws already have kicked in, Echinacea, which recharges the immune system, used to cost $14 a bottle, but now is $153. "Because they work, they have now become 'drugs,'" he said.
"Not content to dominate the drug trade and send your prescription drugs into the $tratosphere, the Food & Drug Administration is now trying (yet again) to take over the entire health food and nutritional supplement industry so they can shut it down forever, leaving expensive FDA-approved drugs – with their myriad side effects – as your only option for treating anything from Alzheimer's to zits," wrote Jim Rutz, in a WND column.
"The FDA hacks are pooh-poohing the significance of the new guidelines as toothless suggestions that merely 'clarify' and 'change nothing.' Yeah, right. In truth, they're following the classic procedure for passing outrageous laws that wouldn't have a chance without an incremental, camel-nose-under-the-tent approach," he said.
"In reality, 2006D-0480 would eventually change everything, including your life expectancy. The FDA realizes that alternative medicine has far, far more solutions to chronic diseases than mainline medicine does ... and that panics them…"
WND also has reported on an agreement by the FDA and the Federal Trade Commission to a Trilateral Cooperation Charter with counterparts in Canada and Mexico under the auspices of NAFTA and the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America that will elevate the crackdown on public access to food supplements and vitamins.
"The purpose is to make an end run around any domestic law that interferes with food and drug multi-national corporate profits," John Hammell, a critic of the plan, told WND.
Hammell is the founder of International Advocates for Health Freedom, an advocacy group created to fight globalists' efforts to regulate alternative health treatments, including herbs, dietary supplements, and vitamins.
"A key goal of the Trilateral Cooperation Charter is to limit the public's access to food supplements and vitamins that are fundamental to many types of alternative medicine," Hammell said. "The Trilateral Cooperation Charter is determined to attack the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 by moving to merge our food and drug regulations with those of Canada and Mexico, both of whom are far more restrictive on dietary supplements."
He believes the agenda of the Trilateral Cooperation Charter reflects a globalist desire to advance the interests of the large pharmaceutical companies by reining in the food supplements industry worldwide.
He points to efforts such as the Codex Alimentarius Commission that was created in 1963 by the Food and Agricultural Organization and the World Health Organization, both official groups within the United Nations.
"The Codex Alimentarius Commission claims that their main purpose is to protect the health of consumers and ensure fair trade practices in the food trade worldwide," Hammell explained to WND. "But the truth is that the Codex Alimentarius Commission is dominated by corporate multi-national interests that do not have as their primary concern the health interests of the people they claim they are in business to protect, not if that health interest is better served by alternative food supplements and alternative medicine. They have a business with disease – it's not in their best interests that people be healthy."

Feds eye control of vitamins, supplements – even water!
FDA looks to regulate natural substances as drugs, with prescriptions from doctors
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FDA Commissioner Andrew von Echenbach
The Food and Drug Administration says vitamins, supplements, herbs and other natural substances, including water when it is used to "treat" dehydration, should be classified as drugs, and opponents have only until April 30 to express their concern about the proposals under Docket No. 2006D-0480.
The government agency under the direction of Andrew C. von Eschenbach, who became commissioner in 2006, also has put its "Complementary and Alternative Medicine Products and Their Regulation by the Food and Drug Administration" on a fast track for implementation.
But parents' groups, natural remedy interests, food and herb businesses and others are horrified. A group called Gentle Christian Mothers alerted its constituency in no uncertain terms.
"Please Read!!! The FDA is trying to regulate all things that are considered by them to be treatment for disease. They want to regulate vitamins, herbs, alternative therapies (things like hot stone therapy), even down to juices and holy water," the warning said. "It might mean having to go to a doctor or medical professional for vitamins."
The website noted that among likely developments if the FDA has its way:
Growing and selling common garden herbs will get you arrested as a drug dealer.
Massage oils and handheld massagers will be regulated as "medical devices."
Vegetable juice will be regulated as a drug.
Weight machines will be regulated as "medical devices" and require FDA approval before being sold or used.
Raw sprouts and other anti-cancer foods will be regulated as drugs.
Bottled water that "treats" dehydration will be regulated as a drug.
Massage therapists who use hot rocks as part of their therapy will have the ROCKS regulated as medical devices! (It's true. The FDA will actually look at a pile of rocks and declare, "Those are medical devices!")
Foods, supplements, vitamins and homeopathic remedies will disappear from store shelves, pending FDA "review."
Vitamin store owners will be arrested and prosecuted for "practicing medicine without a license."
"This could be potentially devastating, not just to my business but to any business relating to supplements," Sophy Winnick, a Felton, Calif., mother of four who has been selling Youngevity products for 10 years, told the Santa Cruz Sentinel. "People better get on the horn about this."
The FDA's "draft guidance" on the issue first appeared in December, but federal officials said it was printed in the Federal Register on Feb. 27, prompting the growing storm of protest.
The FDA has reported that approximately one-third of all adult Americans have reported participating in or using some form of "complementary and alternative medicine" and officials estimate nutritional supplement sales total about $5 billion a year in America.
On the NewsTarget website, self-described "Health Ranger" Mike Adams posted one of the alerts.
"What this means to consumers, according to the proposal as outlined in FDA Docket number 2006D-0480, is that things like vitamins and herbs would be controlled by the FDA, and could possibly require prescriptions from a naturopath, herbologist or some other physician, all of which would require you to pay a health insurance company and contribute to the already back-breaking cost of healthcare in America," he wrote.
"There are those who do not trust the U.S. government to act in the interest of its citizens over the interests of pharmaceutical companies and health insurance providers," he said. "Those people have good reason to feel this way, and the amount of dangerous – DEADLY, even – pharmaceutical drugs that get recalled … is testament to the fact that human beings can be used as guinea pigs because the FDA allows the pharmaceutical industry to release drugs that haven't been properly tested."
As WND recently reported, Merck and Co. had been donating to state legislators across the nation who in return were working to require young girls to be given Merck's $400 vaccine that prevents a virus that is spread only through sexual contact.
WND also has reported on the mandatory anthrax shots for members of the military, even though they had not been fully tested, and the possibility that government officials also could order civilians to be vaccinated.
"This [new] proposal would allow the FDA to control your access to 'alternatives' to the broken, profit-driven, corrupt pharmaceutical industry here in the U.S.," Adams wrote.
"When it comes to health freedom, this is the FDA's end game," he said. "They tried to sneak this under the radar, but word got out and now the natural health community is up in arms over this rule.
"This move by the FDA is designed to once and for all destroy the 1994 DSHEA law that has made supplements 'legal' while eliminating nutritional supplements and natural medicine from the United States, ensuring monopoly profits and control by drug companies and the FDA," he said.
"Under these proposed guidelines, FDA 'experts' (the same corrupt officials who re-approved Vioxx after it killed over 50,000 Americans) will decide whether herbs, supplements, vitamins or simple devices like massage stones are to be regulated as drugs and medical devices," Adams continued. "If the FDA experts, in their infinite wisdom, decide that these things are to be reclassified, they will essentially be outlawed, stripped from the shelves, and regulated out of existence. Anyone who dares to manufacture, promote or sell such products may be branded a criminal and rounded up by armed FDA agents who have a well established history of suppressing natural medicine."
"This is not a drill. It really is time to be alarmed," he said. "Nothing else I've written about this year is as important as this sinister plot to destroy natural medicine and force the American population to resort to dangerous prescription medications sold at monopoly prices under a system of medical tyranny."
For example, he cited wording directly from the FDA plans: "…if a person decides to produce and sell raw vegetable juice for use in juice therapy to promote optimal health … [and] if the juice therapy is intended for use as part of a disease treatment regiment…, the vegetable juice would also be subject to regulation as a drug."
Keep in mind, he said, the FDA is the agency that "openly allows the mass poisoning of the public with cancer-causing food additives such as sodium nitrite."
According to his website, Adams suffered from degenerative disease, was nearly obese and diabetic by 30. He became a student of nutrition and natural therapies and gave up all pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter drugs, caffeine and pursued a natural foods diet with exercise.
He lost 50 pounds, his diabetes symptoms vanished and his blood pressured reached 105/60, so he began a writing and teaching career on his own transformation.
An essay by Roger Wicke at Rocky Mountain Hi Herbal noted, "The unstated purpose of the FDA, and similar organizations in many other countries, is and always has been the protection of major pharmaceutical company profits. Expensive testing protocols act as a way to keep drugs and herbs within the control of the international cartels. While such tests may make sense for newly synthesized drugs with no track record in cultural tradition or popular usage, they are inappropriate for herb and food products, especially those with a long history of usage."
The FDA, in its announcement, said the federal government has been investigating and monitoring "complementary and alternative medicine" since 1992. It also said "depending on the … therapy or practice, a product used … may be subject to regulation."
Secondly, it noted, the law does not exempt alternative medicine products from regulation.
Alan Stang, writing on etherzone.com, was a little more blunt.
"Recently we wrote about the 72-year-old Florida grandmother whom the Food and Drug Administration Nazis are charging with a couple of felonies and some misdemeanors for helping cancer victims get the laetrile (Vitamin B-17) they need," he wrote. "Now here come these same offspring of unmarried female canines, with a scheme that may outlaw dietary supplements…"
He said where such laws already have kicked in, Echinacea, which recharges the immune system, used to cost $14 a bottle, but now is $153. "Because they work, they have now become 'drugs,'" he said.
"Not content to dominate the drug trade and send your prescription drugs into the $tratosphere, the Food & Drug Administration is now trying (yet again) to take over the entire health food and nutritional supplement industry so they can shut it down forever, leaving expensive FDA-approved drugs – with their myriad side effects – as your only option for treating anything from Alzheimer's to zits," wrote Jim Rutz, in a WND column.
"The FDA hacks are pooh-poohing the significance of the new guidelines as toothless suggestions that merely 'clarify' and 'change nothing.' Yeah, right. In truth, they're following the classic procedure for passing outrageous laws that wouldn't have a chance without an incremental, camel-nose-under-the-tent approach," he said.
"In reality, 2006D-0480 would eventually change everything, including your life expectancy. The FDA realizes that alternative medicine has far, far more solutions to chronic diseases than mainline medicine does ... and that panics them…"
WND also has reported on an agreement by the FDA and the Federal Trade Commission to a Trilateral Cooperation Charter with counterparts in Canada and Mexico under the auspices of NAFTA and the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America that will elevate the crackdown on public access to food supplements and vitamins.

Here's What I Know...
There is a difference between knowing and believing.
From this point forward, I will tell you what I know. If its just a "belief", I will intentionally make that clear. Knowledge is power, beliefs only possess the power given to it by the believer. Knowledge is truth, never changes and is all existing. Truth just is.
I once was lost and then I found that although I have come to understand the light, I continued to wander in outer darkness. Outer darkness exists within our realm. Many of us exist there and do not know it. The only way out of this confinement facility is to follow the LIGHT. Which is TRUTH.
The wiser I become, the more dumb I realize I can be. And as soon I realize I know, something, I realize I know so very little. However, in my heart I am convinced that I truly know all things, I only have not come to realize it.
The being we refer to as God, is a tremendous and all powerful FORCE. He has physically touched me and allowed me to realize his existence and undying love form me. For this I will forever be completely overwhelmed and eternally greatful, how I can be connected to something so tremendous and wonderful and beautiful. This is truly a gift.
The Son of God was never referred to as Jesus, his name is Yashua or Yahoshua. He is alive and answers to whatever you call him, because he knows and understands your heart. He is full of compassion, and indescribeable acceptance. He's perfect.
The name Jesus, which in Roman numerics equals 888 (revealed through a dream I had), can be multiplied by two which equals 1776. The number 1776 breaks down to 666 in both Roman and Babylonian numerics if properly applied.
His true name is Yahoshua, the anointed one who came down to show us the way. He is everything he said he was, he exists and will return as he stated. However, as he was expected to come the first time, and came in a totally unexpected way, so this shall happen again.
Christ shall return, I have seen the second coming and it will be exactly as stated in II Peter 3:10-12. Everything that exists in him, which walks in truth, shall remain with him at his appearing. Everything that is false and exists in the realm of lies will disintigrate at his appearing. No seven years of tribulation. No rule and reign of antichrist, no third coming of Christ. Prepare yourselves for the unveiling.
I am cyclical. Life is cyclical, to what degree, I do not completely understand. However, to continue to resist the cycles in my existence is to continue to resist myself. This only causes me, grief, guilt and pain. I release myself from the mental prison I have created for myself and accept who I am to be free. I'm finally learning the meaning of love and what it means to love myself.
History never ceases to repeat itself. Its a law. What has happened before, will happen again. There is no new thing under the sun. It has all been done before. Therefore, I am convinced that all the technology we now possess, we possessed once before, and because we did not love ourselves and understood who we truly were, we destroyed ourselves. Not God. Us.
Karma is real. Whatever you want to call it. The bible calls it sowing and reaping. Whatever you so, you are going to reap. Its a law. I have proven it for myself and I know it to be true. The things that happen to us in life, we bring upon our ownselves whether we do intentionally or unintentionally. Life's purpose is to teach us about ourselves and assist us in our spiritual development. We ultimately attract what we need, whether it be good or bad.
There is good and negative. Whether you call it God and the Devil, whether they be specific personalities, I do not know. All I KNOW, is they exist, good and evil. I know that they are both necessary.
The bible is a POWERFUL book. It contains the LIGHT of truth. Many of the words contained in this book are living and powerfully creative. However, many are also destructive and equally as powerful, but ultimately bring about death. It is up to us to seperate the LIGHT from the DARKNESS in what we perceive in this very powerful book. For many of us, it will be our salvation, and for the majority, it will be our ultimate damnation. This is what I know. You go figure it out.
WE MUST ALL WALK IN NON-JUDGMENT AND DISCONTINUE THIS PERSONAL CYCLE OF BRINGING JUDGMENT UPON OURSELVES. This is difficult for many of us to do because we are so conflicted within ourselves. We've been taught not to judge, and then we've been taught to judge. However, this is what I know, when we judge others, make personal conclusions about people based on our own twisted, perverted and corrupted understanding, we perpetuate continual judgment upon ourselves. Meaning, we create circumstances in our lives whose purpose is to teach us to stop judging people. I'm graduating from this class. You can keep flunking if you want to.
Stay tuned, there is more to come.

666 Preacher's Brother Calls Him a Phoney
666 Preacher's Brother Calls Him a Phoney
(CBS4) First he called himself Jesus Christ, then he said he was the anti-christ. Now his own brother is calling the controversial head of a South Florida church something else -- a cult leader.
Carlos de Jesus Miranda says his brother, Jose de Jesus Miranda, is a phoney, and that his followers are being brainwashed into tattooing themselves and giving money to a slick salesman, who has become a very wealthy man.
According to most churchgoers, the number 666 represents the “mark of the beast” or the “devils number”, but according to preacher Jose de Jesus Miranda, it’s his number because he's the anti-christ, even though six months ago he called himself Christ.
De Jesus preaches that there is no devil and no sin, therefore his followers can indulge in all they want.
"He's not a Christian church or a Christian pastor,” says Carlos de Jesus Miranda. “He doesn't adhere to any of the fundamentals of the Christian church."
Carlos de Jesus Miranda, Jose's brother, is also a pastor. He told CBS-4’s Eliott Rodriguez during a taping of 4 Sunday Morning that Jose is nothing more than a salesman and cult leader with a less than stellar background.
"He was addicted to heroin and the lord saved him and then we all became Christians,” said Carlos.
When asked by CBS-4’s Eliott Rodriguez if he thinks his brother is a phony, Carlos responded “I would say so.”
Carlos spoke out against his brother in hopes that his brothers followers will realize his preaching’s only making him rich.
“I told him he knows he is not Christ and he knows he is not the antichrist,” said Carlos.
Carlos de Jesus Miranda says that while he disagrees with what his brother is doing, the two are on generally good terms and that he does not consider his brother to be a dangerous person.
You can watch Eliott Rodriguez’ complete interview with Carlos de Jesus Miranda this Sunday at 11:00 a.m. on CBS-4.

UFOs on BBC News
It never ceases to amaze me how when I say UFOs exist and extraterrestrials are real, as well as scriptural, bibilical entities, I'm called crazy. However, when they discuss the issue on the BBC, CNN and Fox News, nobody says a peep.
All I have to say is, you are living in the generation who will see ETs, howbeit, demonic entities, face to face. Get ready.

Killer Asteroid in New York Times
By WARREN E. LEARY
The New York Times
WASHINGTON (March 13) - NASA can find and track most of the nearby asteroids that could hit and damage the Earth, but there is not enough money in its budget to finish the project within a 15-year deadline mandated by Congress , according to an agency report released Friday.
Hunting Killer Asteroids Isn't Cheap
Currently, NASA is bearing the overwhelming share of the cost associated with searching for dangerous asteroids.
Research: Too Close for Comfort
The report said there were about 20,000 asteroids and comets orbiting relatively close to our planet that could deliver blows ranging from destroying cities to ending all life.
These objects, 150 yards to more than a mile in diameter, represent about 20 percent of the asteroids and comets whose paths routinely pass between the Sun and the Earth’s orbit, it said. Rather than trying to detect, track, catalog and characterize all of the more than 100,000 “near Earth objects,” as Congress asked in a 2005 NASA authorization bill, the study said it would be more realistic to focus on those representing a real potential hazard.
But accomplishing this by 2020 would require using ground-based telescopes sponsored by other agencies for other purposes, possibly building a dedicated observatory for finding and tracking hazardous bodies and launching a spacecraft to observe the space around Earth from Venus. Such an undertaking, the report said, would cost more than $1 billion that the agency does not have.
NASA runs a program called the Spaceguard Survey to track the largest potentially hazardous objects, those greater than 3,300 feet in diameter that could devastate most life if they hit. That is what scientists believe happened to the dinosaurs some 65 million years ago. This program, using ground-based observatories, is budgeted at $4.1 million a year through 2012.
Donald K. Yeomans, director of the Spaceguard program, said that there were believed to be 1,100 of these larger objects and that the survey had cataloged about 73 percent of them. The initial goal of tracking 90 percent of them should be reached by 2010, more than a year later than originally planned, he said.
Mr. Yeomans, attending a planetary defense conference here last week at George Washington University, said the goal of surveying 90 percent of potentially hazardous objects could be reached more cheaply than in the NASA study by using only ground-based observatories. But Congress would have to change its goal from 2020 to 2026, he said.
Building, launching and operating a deep space orbiting infrared observatory to complete the task more quickly could cost an additional $700 million, he said.
William Ailor of the Aerospace Corporation, a not-for-profit Air Force research group that sponsored the planetary defense conference, said the problem of finding killer asteroids could be solved more easily if more countries were involved. Interest is growing, he said, noting that the European Space Agency is considering a mission called Don Quijote to test ways to deflect an asteroid.
“Should one nation, the United States, be responsible for the entire planet?” Mr. Ailor asked.

The Phoenix & The Light
I recently dreamed that I looked up into the sky and I saw a large beautiful bird floating through the sky trapped inside a large bubble. Travelling beside it was a bright light, also trapped in a bubble. I don't remember much more besides the fact that I had this dream.
When I did a search on the subject, the first thing I came across was a website regarding the Phoenix Lights.
"The Phoenix Lights is a compelling and thoroughly documented account of the most bizarre and widely observed UFO event in modern times." Edgar Mitchell, Apollo Astronaut
The Phoenix Lights Documentary
As I continued my search, I came across this prophecy. Although it makes reference to Gaia (an idea on which at present I have no conclusion), the bulk of this prophecy agrees with biblical scripture and things I have seen in my dreams. Use discernment:
The Prophecy Of The Phoenix
Phoenix took me. Carried me in his claws. High above the world. So that I could see beyond tommorow. And I looked. I beheld the future.
I saw the decimation of our kin. Hunted bryond hunting, death beyond death, to the last one. There were no more children, or grandchildren, or fathers or mothers. This was the first sign Phoenix gave to me, that the Children of The Weaver, the Humans would give to us, the Garou.
I looked. I beheld the future.
I saw the Children of The Weaver birthing. A great tide of humans, rising. I saw more and more, until Gaia groaned at having to carry them all. Their houses overunning, their rakes raping, their hands clawing at the parched earth, trying to feed from Her. This was the second sign of the last days, that Phoenix showed me, that Humans would do.
I looked again. I beheld the third sign.
So many. So many children. So many Humans. And they fell against each other, one to one, and the Wyrm brought forth corruption and gave each a measure. And the strange fire I saw, out of control, the great plume rising over the wilderness, spreading death wherever it shone in that dark and cold land. And I heard the agony of the sea as she keened, for some drunken fool had poured a lake of black death out upon her.
I turned my head away in disgust, but I could not help but look again. I beheld then the fourth sign.
The Wyrm grew powerful; its wings fanned the breezes of decay. It spread its diseases, and they were horrible: the herd became afflicted with diseases of the head and the blood. Children were born twisted. Animals fell sick and no one could cure them. In these final days, even the Warriors of Gaia could not escape the palsied talons of the sickness-bringing deathbird.
A tear in my eye, I looked again, and the Phoenix showed me the fifth sign.
I saw other plumes rising like death-spears toward the beautiful sky, piercing it, letting Father Sun burn and parch Gaia. The air grew hot; even in the darkness of winter it was warm. The plants withered in the sun. A cry of pain and disease arose from the dying forests; as one the relations cried tears of mourning.
Then, as though a veil were torn, the sixth sign showed itself to me.
In these last days, Gaia shakes in rage. Fire boils from the depths. Ash shrouds the sky. The Wyrm skulks in the shadows made by these...and rears to strike. The old ones are gone; the guardians of the pathways and the crossroads are finished. In these final days the sixth sign will make itself known in the packs that form. Each pack will have unto itself a quest, a sacred journey it must perform. Suck is the will of Gaia.
And I saw the sky turn black, and the moon was as blood. And the seventh sign I glimpsed, though I could not look on it in full. But its heat I could feel.
The Apocalypse. The final days of the world. The moon was swallowed by the sun and it burned in his belly. Unholy fires fell to the ground, burning us all, twisting us and making us vomit blood. The wyrm made itself manifest in the towers and the rivers and the air and the land, and everywhere its children ran rampant, devouring, destroying, calling down curses of every kind. And the herd ran in fear. And the dark ones, children of the Wyrm, crawled from their caves and walked the streets in daylight.
I turned my head from the sight. Phoenix told me: "This is as it shall be, but not as it should." Phoenix left me then.
Now I cannot dream. I can only remember the signs, each one in perfect detail. These are the last days. May Gaia have mercy on us.
__________________________
I continue my search, for after watching the news recently, I again heard about "Phoenix" in reference to a nuclear attack on Phoenix through the "Phoenix Memo". This reminded me of a dream someone else had. A dream that one day Phoenix Arizona would be hit with a nuclear weapon. To this day, I continue to receive confirmations on this.
PHOENIX ARIZONA – THE NEXT 911
"dream 2 – CATASTROPHIC EVENT – (March 24th, 2002 – Rich Keltner) I was on the phone with my old boss from a company I worked for about six (6) years ago in the Security Industry. As I talked to him on the phone I mentioned that he should ‘Get Right With God’ because there was not much time left before the End of The World. As I explained this I mentioned how I had had a dream on February 19th of 2001 about the World Trade Center Falling Down and how it came to pass on September 11th of 2001. Then I added that I also had a dream that showed The United States looking like It Had Fallen into Third (3rd) World Country Status. All of a sudden he said to me ‘Wait a minute, my daughter had a similar dream!’ At this point in the dream I was no longer on the phone with him but in his house looking at his little girl who appeared to be about 6 or 7 years old (his daughter in real life is now about 16 years old). As I talked with him, in his house, he explained to me that ‘He was not a Christian and his daughter wasn’t either.’ He concluded that, ‘The dream she had might not be true.’ I told him that it says in the Word of God, ‘The Lord would pour out His Spirit in the form of dreams and visions on ALL FLESH in the End Times.’. As I explained this he said, ‘My daughter’s dream was showing that a CATASTROPHIC EVENT would be TAKING PLACE SOON that will drag The United States Into Third (3rd) World Country Status." I felt (in the dream) as he told me this it meant AN ENTIRE CITY WOULD BE DISAPPEARING (I could not tell if this meant there would be a ‘Nuclear’ or ‘Chemical’ Attack or Something Else). All that was clear was that A CITY WILL BE ATTACKED and that MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THAT CITY WILL BE GONE. This event will bring the United States into total devastation.. At the end of the dream I heard, ‘PHOENIX, ARIZONA’."

Outgunned on U.S. Border
Officers Outgunned on U.S. Border
I have been saying for almost a year now, when the border crisis "decided" to break out, that this was a made up scenario to begin building a fence on the southern border. This fence will be a protective barrier, not from Mexicans, because we know that has never been a serious issue to our goverment; but rather, a protective barrier from the rest of the world who will be displaced by Abrupt Climate Change.
Ordinarily, I would have never expected this, had it not been for documented research I read prior, developed for the Department of Defense (DOD). The document is called An Abrupt Climate Change Scenario and its Implications for United States National Security (Oct 2003) by Peter Schwartz and Doug Randall. This research discusses the possible scenarios of Abrupt Climate Change and the possible contingencies.
It explains how based on current models of global warming, we will likely face the displacement of entire populations. As these refugees (personified in Hurricane Katrina) begin to seek habitation elsewhere, the United States will become increasingly attractive and could initiate future "resource" wars. It is after I understood this reality that the battle at the U.S. Mexican border took on a totally different light. I knew a fence would inevidibly be put up.
It is my personal belief that the current border conflict was developed as an excuse to build a fence for logical reasons based on completely unbelievable futures. I talk more about this in my book Dreams & Visions of our Future. Based on scriptural evidence and the dreams I have had in the past few years, I am convinced that we will see the complete shut down of not only our national borders but state borders as well. Check points will be set up at state lines and you will not have free access to come and go as you please. Everything will be completely controlled.
Not a time to be alarmed, but definitely a time to be forewarned, prepared and to have complete faith and confidence in our great and mighty God.

Dear Friends,
From: Al Cuppett
I read this (subject article) in the Washington Times newspaper myself--yesterday. I'm sure this press report is mostly true. But our National Guard guys are in the same "spot"...
Therefore, be advised "Brother Bob" called me and warned last year, in a prophetic revelation, when the Guard was deployed to the SW border, that if they didn't have "weapons and ammo" there would be a catastrophe. Looks like it's on the way thanks to the "shadow govt"!
Nevertheless, within a few months of their arrival our guys were "attacked", apparently by some "Mexicans" and our guys had to "retreat". Those are the words from the report. I can't recall seeing any photos showing the NG with M-16's slung on their shoulder.
Bob is always correct and if you have kinfolk down there in the National Guard you'd better tell them to go to a hardware store and get some "stuff". Hopefully our commanders let them carry their [loaded] rifles on duty; and not locked up in an arms room. Hopefully, they all have their M-16's?????
In the Name of the Lord

Moon Turned into Blood?
"The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come." Joel 2:31
Stargazers Watch Total Lunar Eclipse

1 hour, 24 minutes ago
LONDON - The moon darkened, reddened, and turned shades of gray and orange Saturday night during the first total lunar eclipse in nearly three years, thrilling stargazers and astronomers around the world.
The Earth's shadow took over six hours to crawl across the moon's surface, eating it into a crescent shape before engulfing it completely in a spectacle at least partly visible on every continent.
About a dozen amateur astronomers braved the cold and mud outside the Croydon Observatory in southeast London to watch the start of the eclipse.
"It's starting to go!" said Alex Gikas, 8, a Cub Scout who was studying for his astronomy badge. "I've never seen anything like it before. I'm really excited."
By the time greatest eclipse, shortly after 5:44 p.m. EST, the light of the full moon was replaced by near-total obscurity.
"It was really very dark," said Paul Harper, Chairman of the Croydon Astronomical Society, who estimated that moon had lost over four-fifths of its luminosity. "It was quite a nice one."
Lunar eclipses occur when Earth passes between the sun and the moon, an uncommon event because the moon spends most of its time either above or below the plane of Earth's orbit.
Sunlight still reaches the moon during total eclipses, but it is refracted through Earth's atmosphere, bathing the moon in an eerie crimson light.
Mike Ealay, a 60-year-old architect who wandered over to the observatory to watch the eclipse, said the red color of the moon made it look like a close-up version of Mars.
"I think it's quite exciting. It's like having the red planet on your doorstep," he said.
Despite cloudy conditions over much of Europe, a variety of Webcasts carried the event live, and astronomers urged the public not to miss out on the spectacle.
"It's not an event that has any scientific value, but it's something everybody can enjoy," said Robert Massey, of Britain's Royal Astronomical Society.
The moon's red blush faded as it began moving out of Earth's shadow just after 8 p.m. EST. The eclipse ended a little more than hour later.
Residents of east Asia saw the eclipse cut short by moonset, while those in the eastern parts of North and South America had the moon already partially or totally eclipsed by the time it rose over the horizon in the evening.
While eastern Australia, Alaska and New Zealand missed Saturday's show, they will have front row seats to the next total lunar eclipse, on Aug. 28.

Lunar eclipse wows sky watchers
The coppery moon was clearly visible across much of Britain Sky watchers across the world have been enjoying the first total lunar eclipse in more than three years.
The eclipse began at 2018 GMT, with the Moon totally immersed in the shadow of the Earth between 2244 and 2358 GMT.
During "totality" the Moon took on a reddish hue; the only light reaching its surface by this stage had been filtered through Earth's atmosphere. The eclipse was visible from the whole of Europe, Africa, South America, and eastern parts of the US and Canada.
The copper-red Moon was visible across large areas of the UK thanks to clear skies.
TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE
Occurs when Moon passes into Earth's shadow
Penumbra: Region where Earth blocks some (but not all) Sun rays
Umbra: Zone where Earth blocks all direct sunlight - total eclipse
Lunar eclipses occur when the Sun, Earth and Moon are in a near-perfect line in space.
Eclipse will be a red moon rising
SPECTACULAR SKY SHOW: The lunar surface will appear as a deep red disc on the East coast.
Red moon over Miami. And Fort Lauderdale. And especially the beaches. A spectacular sky show is scheduled for sunset Saturday as a totally eclipsed full moon rises over the ocean.
If the weather gods are kind and the sky is clear, the lunar surface will appear as a deep red disc that brightens into moon glow as Earth's curved shadow slowly recedes.
