“The project was named after the Egyptian god of chaos. “This campaign is named Apophis [another name for Apep] after the cosmic world serpent from ancient Egyptian cosmology. The serpent pursues the sun god Ra, and every so often, nearly consumes the sun disc, resulting in an eclipse,” a NASA website stated.
“Apep, also known as ‘Apophis’ in Greek, was the Egyptian god of chaos. Apep was the polar opposite of the godly personification of order, Ma’at, and the chief enemy of the king of the gods, the sun-god Ra. He took the form of a great snake,” according to study.com
This project aims to “measure disruptions in the Earth’s ionosphere caused by the Moon’s temporary eclipse of the Sun,” which is accomplished via sounding rockets that carry scientific instruments into key regions of space.
Additionally, on the same day, CERN’s biggest and most potent particle accelerator in the world will smash protons together in an attempt to find any unseen particles (dark matter) that is covertly causing the cosmos to expand, according to the European Organization for Nuclear Research.
Total Solar Eclipse will occur on April 8.”
NASA To Launch 3 Rockets On April 8 During Total Solar Eclipse
So April 8th is turning out to have quite the litany of events planned! A total eclipse, possibly a distant comet swinging by, CERN restarting experiments, and an ill-named science project!
Where I live, we won’t see much of, if any of the eclipse, and we don’t own a telescope to spot the comet either. But one thing I do know, having had to deal with it first hand in the past, is that names given to “gods” in ancient mythos tend to be literally connected to actual demonic entities in the very real supernatural world! I’m not surprised the first round of NASA’s experiements were done in Mexico. They too have a deity known in English as the world serpent, and with a very long Aztec/Inca/Mayan name in Mexico. Incidentally, the Chinese dragon could be called a serpent due to it’s rather snake-like features.
In Scripture, we read:
Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Genesis 3:14-15 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
(this passage prophecies the coming of Jesus Christ and the events that would happen between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday.)John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
World serpent indeed. . . We don’t need ignorant scientists paying such a personage any homage!
Have you put your faith in Jesus Christ? Is your life placed in His eternal hands? I don’t know how the events of April 8th will affect daily life. There could be nothing to impact what happens on earth, or there could be. There could be nothing to impact spiritual life, or there could be. But it seems that various pundits, astronomers, and pattern-watchers, are saying to be prepared for more than just looking at a total solar eclipse. Time to check your spiritual compass to be sure it’s pointed at Jesus Christ as your guiding North Star. No matter what anyone may try to do here on earth, when your life is in His hands, you can rest assured that whether in or out of the body, your eternal welfare is assured. If you are not yet saved, I invite you to pray with me:
Dear Jesus, I admit that I am a sinner. I admit that I am unable to save myself from the eternal punishment for all who sin. I repent of my sins and ask that You forgive my sin and come live inside my heart. I agree and declare that You are God and that You took my punishment on Yourself so that if I accept Your offer of Salvation, You can offer me eternal life. I accept Your gift Jesus. Thank You for saving me and granting me eternal life with You. I ask for Your help living in these turbulent times. Thank You for loving me enough to die for me. in Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
If you prayed that prayer and meant it, you need to find a Bible and start reading it. Begin in the book of John, then Proverbs, then Romans, then the Psalms, then four small books: Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians and Colossians (or the General Electric Power Company). Find other believers, and a church that did not bow the knee during the pandemic. As long as they are Salvation preaching, Bible teaching, Holy spirit leading people, they will aid in your growth as a believer.
The days are getting darker. Be sure your eternal destiny is in good hands!
So I just read this piece from our BC provincial government about housing initiatives!
“B.C. Premier David Eby says the private market can’t solve the province’s housing crisis, as his government launches an almost $3 billion public housing program to build more affordable rental units for middle-income earners.”
For starters, “middle income earners”??? What about those who are in the low-income bracket?! Where are they supposed to live?! I agree that rents are far too high these days, but to think that those earning more than $40k/yr need help paying rent too. . . ok. . . sort of. . . assuming they have a higher-end lifestyle to support than the basics and still want to rent when lowering that lifestyle might let them buy and put money into their own hole in the ground instead. . . but all this focus on middle income earners. . . they could make housing affordable for both them AND the low-income earners if they focused on rental affordability for those on low-income!
“The New Democrat government says the BC Builds program will target land owned by governments, community and non-profits and provide low-cost financing to fast-track rental property developments on underutilized lands in communities across B.C.”
Secondly. . . “underutilised land” . . . I know parking lots out there, where they sit empty for months on end, but put a major event in the building that built the parking lot and suddenly it’s so full there isn’t room to park everyone! Put other buildings on those lots, and THEN where will people park for those big events?! Oh right. . . they are trying to push people out of their vehicles and into mass transit, which often doesn’t run on workable schedules for these events!!! Hmmm. . . .
“… the private market can’t solve the province’s housing crisis”
“… the strategy stands in contrast to the “predictable” outcomes when government exited the housing market, “speculators ran wild” and prices and rents rose.”
Thirdly. . .So our choices are greed justified by landlords wanting renters to foot the mortgage for them, (erroneously calling rental suites “mortgage helpers” as a result! Listen! If you want ME to pay YOUR mortgage, MY name better be on the purchase papers and YOU are my renter!), or government-controlled housing. . .
As it is right now, everyone knows that it isn’t wise to buy or rent on native land, because you can be kicked off that land at any time without any reason. I’ve seen news stories right here in the Central Okanagan where they booted off other natives, simply because they weren’t indigenous to the local tribe! They were from Ontario, married a local native, had kids with them who grew up and moved back to Ontario. When the spouse from the local band died, the married-in spouse got evicted from the home they had bought and renovated! If they will do that to their own people, they will and have done that to those who are not of native origin.
Now. . . extrapolate that style of behaviour to the government, particularly in the new cancel culture we live in where if you say what they deem to be mis or disinformation or speak out against what they are doing, you can be liable for thought crimes, or even pre-crimes if Trudeau ever gets his way with THAT idea! So you move into government housing, speak out against the government and now you’re out of a home!
What we need is for people to stop buying homes they can’t afford that they expect renters to pay for. We need people buying what they CAN afford, not demanding the renter pays the mortgage, and charging liveable rates that low-income people who can’t buy homes, can afford on a monthly basis.
Currently, non-profits who handle subsidized housing demand that you don’t have any pets, among the list of other demands you have to meet before they put you on a 2 – 5 year wait list. The idea apparently presents that if you can afford a pet, why are you looking for subsidized housing? Do they know how many middle income earners have pets, perhaps more than one pet??? Two cats and/or two dogs is common among middle income earners! They might also have birds and fish too. Another stipulation often involves parking in these subsidized zones. Are they not aware that most middle income families have at least two vehicles, sometimes three or more if the kids are of driving age too? They don’t just have vehicles to commute to and from work, school or the store, but they might have toys as well such as ATV’s, motorbikes, boats, and other toys reminiscent of the middle class lifestyle that need somewhere to be parked and maintained. A low-income household might have one or two vehicles, and in an effort to save on fuel, one might be a motorbike or scooter. They generally don’t have all the toys needing extra space, but if two people in the home are working minimum wage jobs trying to make ends meet where buses don’t run very well, they will have two vehicles to get to those jobs.
I don’t foresee government-run housing being any better than subsidized housing, but I can easily see it being worse. Yes there are greedy people wanting to fleece the public for as much as they can get out of the rental market, and yes that is adding to the homeless population as people who used to be able to pay the bills, no longer can due to rising costs across the board while their job stays the same or even cuts back on them. But the way I’ve seen the government handle this in the past, versus how things are going into the future, I see this as another way to control the population.
EDIT April 5, 2024
An example of this kind of behaviour crossed my desk as I was scanning CTV News. The tone of the article was intended to disparage the current sitting Saskatchewan government, but the behaviour would have been there regardless of which party had the ruling majority.
A Regina father and his five children have been left homeless after being evicted from a government housing unit on Wednesday after several noise complaints.
With children involved, the Saskatchewan opposition NDP says the situation should have been handled differently after the locks on the home were changed and the family was shutout of the house.
Nepinak said the children’s father called Saskatchewan Income Support first and then Regina Housing, which directed him back to income support.
“So this family did come to our office for assistance. They were evicted from Regina Housing. They say it was due to some noise complaints. They weren’t behind on rent. They weren’t behind on utilities and we were pretty shocked,” NDP MLA Meara Conway said.
A similar incident that took place with a Regina senior who suddenly found herself homeless(opens in a new tab) resulted in the province intervening and providing supports.
“This is a pattern that we’re seeing with a lack of real basic stuff from this government being able to provide housing to seniors, to children. I mean it’s very concerning,” Conway said.
The NDP office “very helpfully” came to the rescue of this “poor family” that the sitting government somehow couldn’t accommodate.
Here in BC, the ruling party IS the NDP who as mentioned earlier in this article, is trying to set up government-run housing!!!
end edit
If at all possible, do your absolute best to avoid ever having to live in government-run projects!!! (anyone from or who knows of certain areas of NYC will understand the term I just used)
Dangerous precedents against God’s people are trickling into the courts of our land! Today a human rights tribunal here in BC made a callous “observation”, either because of the defendant’s lack of reference to what I will share next, or in defiance of what the Bible does indeed command of God’s followers to declare, to expose, to defend, to preach and to do so publicly.
“Glebov alleged FIC terminated his employment because of videos posted on YouTube of him preaching his Christian views.
“I find Mr. Glebov has no reasonable prospect of proving that he has a sincerely held religious belief or practice that requires him to publicly share his views on the subjects at issue,” Etmanski said in her Jan. 26 decision.”
“Prior to each academic semester, Glebov and FIC entered into an employment agreement, part of which included a provision of a “staff pack.”
Under the heading, harassment in the workplace, the pack said, “FIC expects you to behave in a manner that will not intimidate or be offensive to the community. Harassment can be defined as any unwelcome or offensive comment or action concerning race, colour, marital status, language, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, sex, age, pregnancy, disability, political or religious conviction.”
Complaint to school
In November 2019, a student sent FIC’s principal links to Glebov’s YouTube videos.”“Termination
On Dec. 9, 2019, Glebov met with the school director who told him the video comments went against school polices, and that his teaching duties would finish that day.Glebov said the videos had no connection to his employment with FIC. He said FIC arbitrarily broadened the scope of the term “workplace” to videos posted in his personal capacity.
Glebov said the director arbitrarily characterized his views as hateful and offensive, without providing any basis for the subjective criteria it applied.
While Glebov claimed religious discrimination, FIC told the tribunal that Glebov would not be able to establish that his YouTube conduct arose from a sincerely held practice or belief that has a direct connection with religion.
“I agree,” Etmanski said. “ I find that Mr. Glebov has not taken out of the realm of conjecture that he sincerely believes he must publicly disseminate the views set out above as part of his Christian faith.”
She said he would have to prove how posting YouTube videos of his views are connected with his religion and required by it.”
“However, said Etmanski, “Glebov has not provided any basis for saying that publicly disseminating his views is related to the tenets of his faith or that his ability to practice his religion would be compromised if he were unable to do so.”
Added Etmanski, Glebov provided no “evidence that he had a religious duty to spread his views, or that he manifests his religious beliefs through activism.””
About that. . . Take a pause now, go make yourself your favourite beverage and snack plate, come back here, then sit down, put your feet up, maybe put on some soothing worship music, and read.
Scripture is literally FULL of exhortation to speak of our faith in public, in family gatherings, in the marketplace, on the street corner, on the highways and byways, in the seat of council and government, to other nations, around the world! The verses and passages here are not exhaustive of the many places in the Old and New Testament where these admonitions are given, but they are examples. In some cases, they are examples of what the defendant was talking about as well.
Not everyone who preaches what God loves and hates, will do so in a way that is tactful or ‘pleasing to the ear”, and some would say the wording shared in the above article was crass and even unfeeling or uncaring. Whether he actually said those phrases, or that’s what the student claimed he said is moot to the discussion, because people will reword what they hear regardless, and it will be reworded according to how they heard it and how it affected them. I fear that this kind of lynching will take place more and more, as the secular public tries to shut down God’s voice through His people as it becomes more and more offensive to them regardless of how careful or loving a discourse may set out to be.
Without further adieu, here is that sampling of directives in Scripture, to take what God shares to the public square:

1 Corinthians 1:18-31 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) I saw this acronym earlier tonight, and thought it sounded like words I’d heard in passing but forgot what they were. Taking a somewhat phonetic approach to the acronym, the first word I thought of was:
feek, which according to Merriam-Webster, refers to a lock of hair.
Kind of fits. The WHO’s power grab attempt certainly is hair-brained. My daughter found another spelling pronounced “fyke”:
fiec which apparently refers to feces.
Many would say the WHO has been and plans to dish a fair bit of manure on the world’s population! Another word, if you take the C and make it a soft c, is:
phyc as the root word of phycology, which apparently refers to the study of algea.in a list my daughter read.
Most people think of algea as that slimy stuff growing on the walls of pools and hot tubs. If what the WHO is trying to pull off isn’t slimy, I don’t know what is. Another spelling of the hard c pronounciation:
fike, according to WikiDiff, has a number of unflattering definitions:
To feign; dissemble; flatter. To move about in a quick, uneasy way; be constantly in motion. To give trouble to; vex; perplex. Restlessness or agitation caused by trifling annoyance. Any trifling peculiarity in regard to work which causes unnecessary trouble; teasing exactness of operation. A sore place on the foot.
Wow! Lying to the global public. Flattering pharma companies and government leaders to get them to come alongside, or perhaps the same being done to WHO leaders by other string pullers to have WHO do their bidding (Bill Gates anyone???). The WHO is definitely causing agitation among those who don’t agree with what they are doing, precisely because of the unnecessary trouble they’ve caused and intend to cause, with a fair bit of “exactness of operation”! If you’ve ever walked on a sore foot, you know how painful it can be, and how it can hamper movement, something WHO, WEF, and others most definitely want to inflict on the world. 15 min cities or lockdowns come to mind.
How do you pronounce the acronym for Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) and do words come to mind that sound the same that carry meaning for or against this proposed creation of the WHO?
While the quote I’ll share at the end, came from an article about how people in the US should consider their vote in late 2024, the sentiment shared here is why I don’t hold anyone up on a pedestal. I’ve had people get upset with me for saying that I don’t care how well-researched someone is, if their views contradict Scripture, or read into Scripture things that otherwise aren’t there, I’m not going to agree with or concede that they are right. For as long as humans have lived on this earth, they have remained human, even those in the faith. Their humanity places their education and authority below that of God’s, and I’ve personally known people face to face, who honestly felt they were hearing from God when in reality they were hearing from a deceiving spirit. Unfortunately, anyone who tried to point this out would get shut out and if the pointing out was done online, they were blocked/banned, rather than seek God for clarification on what they thought they were hearing or teaching.
I’ve had people put ME on a pedestal, then got royally disillusioned or upset when I slide off that thing right on top of their heads! They can’t for the life of them understand how I was capable of sliding off that pedestal in the manner I did or said. But I am human too! It isn’t wise to elevate people to a position where they can’t do or say anything wrong. There was only one person to walk this earth to earn that position, and He was God in the Flesh, our Soon-coming King Who will walk this earth in the not-to-distant future, Jesus Christ!
Only God can handle being put on a pedestal, because He is God! People get disillusioned and upset with God too, because He didn’t play the part of the celestial slot machine or genie granting every wish they demand. But even when we don’t understand what He is or is not doing all the time, for those in the faith, situations always turn around for our good. Faith instead of fist-shaking, allows this to happen.
For fellow human beings, giving them space to be fallible is 100% necessary! Big name teachers can misinterpret Scripture just as well as someone who may never see a microphone or stand on a stage. The person studying the Scriptures at the dining room table has more clout in the mind of the Apostle Paul, than those who take his word at face value and never question it. So I leave you with this quote from a man who is no longer alive.
“John Adams, our second president, said, “We electors have an important constitutional power placed in our hands; we have a check upon two branches of the legislature … the power I mean of electing at stated periods [each] branch. … It becomes necessary to every [citizen] then, to be in some degree a statesman, and to examine and judge for himself of the tendency of political principles and measures. Let us examine, then, with a sober, a manly … and a Christian spirit; let us neglect all party [loyalty] and advert to facts; let us believe no man to be infallible or impeccable in government any more than in religion; take no man’s word against evidence, nor implicitly adopt the sentiments of others who may be deceived themselves, or may be interested in deceiving us.””
2024. . . It used to be, what seems like many years ago now, that welcoming the start of a new year was met with anticipation, resolutions, thanksgiving for all that went right in the past year and looking forward to what the coming year would bring. Graduations, births, weddings, promotions, new jobs, new homes, and that’s just scratching the surface. . . But after 4 years of intense efforts to turn life upside down around the modern world in as many ways in as many facets of life as possible, the result is a collective outlook on the new year in a manner that combines pattern recognition, survival skill adoption, and a snowball of ever-wilder theories and distrust of everyone and everything.
It seems that not only did mainstream media, mainstream medical, and government toss out tried and tested science in March of 2020, but many who got disillusioned with those three institutions tossed out the same science as well. In the world of health subjects, medicinal teachings born out of religious context have moved from the fringes to practically bullying their way onto centre stage of anyone running from mainstream medicine. This is resulting in people tossing out any and all science that ever pointed to the concept of germs, bacteria, viruses, as if the scientists who made such discoveries are to be ripped out of the textbooks, journals and paper repositories as crafty slight-of-hand artists! We won’t mention that ages before the concept of modern science or modern medicine, doctors and herbalists in ancient times wrote about how to deal with health issues that sound remarkably similar to what is now being tossed on the burn heap of disillusionment.
Mainstream media is now seen as just another acting studio, churning out fake news intended to hoodwink the masses. It doesn’t help that CNN was well on it’s way to earning this award well over a decade before 2020 landed on our heads. That “news” station has been caught far too many times trying to fabricate imagery and “live” footage to back up their view of whatever the news story is of the day. Unfortunately, this means that the odd reporter who actually does manage to get a truthful story out in mainstream news, is now seen as suspect, and any truthful reporting ever done since the age of television began, is now seen as nothing more than historical untruth. People are believing stranger things now than they were when I was a kid, simply because their distrust of modern media means they can’t reconcile anything that had been shared over media as any sort of truth.
The collusion of governments against their own people around the world has been a rude surprise for anyone who thought their governments were there for their benefit. Unfortunately, governments in western civilization had begun to tarnish that image as far back as 2008. Non-democratic nations have known for decades that government isn’t always there for your benefit, but those in western nations who did not wake up from 2008 to 2020, discovered the hard way just how dangerous even democratic governments can be. I regret to observe that too many in these nations still believe the government is there for their benefit, and may die never waking up to the truth. Protests and petitions however, as polite and law-abiding as some of them have been over the past 4 years, aren’t changing the political landscape as much as they anticipate. I cheer for the Netherlands, Hungary, and other nations where the people have managed to bring in centrist or right-wing governments who want to halt the global tyranny threatening those nations. But while this battle seems less idealistic than the other two, with less benefit being thrown out alongside the trash to the burn heap. It bothers me to see the idealism being put forward by many of the so-called right-wing politicians. The way some of them are handling their voted-in positions and mandates, still sounds globalistic, just in a different way.
Even the world of retail, business and materialism has made drastic changes in the last 4 years, aided by educational institutions where people train to join these avenues of life. Here, we have seen an all-out assault against traditional family values that shaped many western countries for the better. The dismantling of the traditional family over the past 30 to 50 years (because the beginnings of this breakdown were celebrated in the late ’60’s) has been a huge part of the breakdown of western society. But since 2020, the assault has stepped into full-on war on the family, and not just the family unit, but the ability of the human race to procreate and multiply to allow younger generations to replace older generations and continue the human foot print on this planet. We have environmental groups now, warning intergovernmental agencies that human exhalation is a threat to ecological health!
Was it really necessary to toss the baby out with the bathwater in all these facets of life since 2020? Was it really necessary??? Discovering that government is trying to do you in doesn’t mean abolishing government or putting on blinders. Discovering that media had been lying on one hand, shaping public opinion on another hand, and contributing to the demise of the family on the third hand doesn’t mean that every single thing you ever learned was a lie! Is history written by the victor? Yes it is! But when you find materials that were NOT written by the victor, telling a similar story, does that mean they are lying too??? There are times when both the loser and the victor tell the same story from opposite perspectives, often, with the loser trembling in their boots that if the victor finds out they shared their side of the story, they’ll be killed. Sadly, history records this happening. Does this mean all the monuments ever erected should be torn down because people can’t trust the history they were taught??? NO!
There is a saying: Let cool heads prevail. When we allow ourselves to get swept up into the frenzy of discovery that if we were lied to once, then it’s all a lie, we are no better off than those who bought the lies that were indeed told, and who go along with them. Discord is part of the way that societies get destroyed. Divide and conquer is another saying that applies quite strongly here! Get people fighting each other on ideological grounds and they’ll be too engrossed in proving the other person a fraud to pick up a weapon against the real enemy!
I can think of various events over the decades that had both real and contrived elements to them, and the news and governments used the real as cover for the contrived, or used the contrived to cover up for the real, and in pretty much every event I can think of, people tossing those events out as nothing more than 100% contrived are just as much in the wrong as those who crafted and published the lies to begin with. This is because of a few understandings gleaned from Scripture:
1) When the truth is distorted, even just a little, people can be made to question the truth and die. Too many are now questioning truth because they are suddenly seeing a lie behind every doorway.
2) God expressly told His people never to tear down monuments, but to remember why they were there and tell their children, so that the lessons learned would never be forgotten.
3) Various conditions God gave cures for in Scripture, would eventually be studied by others both while Scripture was being written and on into modern times, and the methods of treatment back then still work today. Because modern science backs up Scriptural and historical understandings, we should not be tossing out scientific discovery just because governments joined corporations to start pushing junk science to advance harmful agendas.
It would appear that the string pullers have been rather successful in tearing at the very fabric of civilized society such that if you still believe science, medicine, the traditional family, faith, and history have anything good to contribute, you’re considered a lost cause. Conversely, if you have tossed all that to the wind, you are now seen as a progressive, and a stalwart of the values you threw out the window without calling them that because of your aversion to the lies others had wrapped around them.
I am greatly saddened by this turn of events. Junk science isn’t all there is to science. Twisted medicine isn’t all there is to medicine and you don’t have to go to the dark arts to rediscover useful medicine. The dark arts would actually appear to be fuelling modern medicine’s push with synthetic drugs and vaccines. This push however, shouldn’t be seen as permission to run to those same sources thinking their use of the word “natural” is better than “synthetic”. God says in His Word that good and bad governments rise and fall at His command, and that bad governments are often punishment on a nation for that nation’s collective choices. God also says that in the last days, the enemy of our souls and his henchmen in the spiritual world, will influence mankind to challenge God, try to put in a one world government, and push Israel into the sea. God tells us how this will end in the books of Daniel, Ezekiel, Joel, Hosea, Revelation, Matthew 24, and other passages in the New Testament as well.
What many are waking up to realize whether they have tossed the baby out with the bathwater or tried to hold onto sanity by embracing the truth while spitting out the lies, is that we are in a battle between good and evil like nothing the world has ever seen before! This sort of battle has been waged on smaller regional levels, but hasn’t been spread as widely around the world at the same time since before the Great Flood! The only sure-fire way to escape what is going on, will be to have Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour! Clinging to the objectivity found in God’s Word will put you at odds with others who say they are fellow believers, and it may get you killed by governmental or intergovernmental forces. But the battle between good and evil is going to decide the eternal fate of billions of people, with the goal of the enemy to send as many into hell as he can. The biggest and longest-term rebellion you can mount, is to accept Jesus as your Saviour, read your Bible asking the Holy Spirit to lead you into living it out, and enter eternity on God’s side of the battle. Why? Because God wins! We as mere humans can’t win the earthly skirmishes on our own. We can be as idealistic or as spiritual as we want, but without Jesus as our righteousness, we’ll end up on the losing side regardless.
Therefore, it is my desire as we enter 2024, to see my readers choose objectivity over wild conspiracy; choose historical fact over sensationalized theory; choose God’s ways over earthly ways; seek the Holy Spirit for wisdom, insight, understanding, foresight, and discernment to know how to live in these darkening days.
While the blue pill of deceit is an easy pill to swallow for too many out there, it would appear that swallowing the red pill has been sending people over the opposite edge as well. So many can’t handle, can’t fathom, and can’t reconcile that they had been lied to and now think everything and anything they ever learned were lies and now rush out in all directions for anything that sounds sufficiently different to claim as truth. Truth still exists. Useful, empirical knowledge still exists. Not everything you learned was a lie! Let us get back to objective perspectives on what is going on, what is real, and what is fabricated and fake. If you don’t know who to trust anymore, go to God. As Scripture says, He cannot deny Himself and has given us the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth.
I will end with a verse from Proverbs:
Proverbs 3:5-8 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. 8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
Three mainstream news articles crossed my desk this fall, with the most recent arriving this past week, all talking about either electric vehicles, or connected vehicles, and there’s no reason to believe that soon, EV’s will be that much more connected than they already are!
In October, this article showed up:
Connected vehicles can be at risk of hacking, consumer awareness paramount: experts
VEHICLES AT RISK OF HACKING Ritika Dubey, The Canadian Press – Oct 8, 2023 / 10:20 am
“”Cars are tracking how fast you’re going, where you’re going, what your altitude is — and all the different pieces of information are being calculated … It’s all computerized,” he said.”
“”Let’s say someone is driving on the highway and the doors get locked, the car speeds up and the (driver) gets a message asking for bitcoin or they’ll crash the vehicle,” said AJ Khan, founder of Vehiqilla Inc., a Windsor, Ont.-based company offering cybersecurity services for fleet cars.
“That scenario is possible right now.”
Khan added any car that can connect to the internet, whether gas-powered or electric, could be at risk of hacking.
But electric vehicles are particularly vulnerable to cybersecurity thefts.”
“Researchers at Concordia University in Montreal found significant weaknesses in their 2022 study of public and private EV charging stations across Canada — all of them connect to the internet. The study showed breaches could affect drivers, power stations and the power grid they are connected to.”
“”Another critical aspect of cybersecurity in this ecosystem is the power utility itself,” Assi said.
If a hacker synchronizes multiple charging stations and turns the charging of cars on and off, the power grid could be destabilized, he explained.
Assi said these shortcomings were flagged to manufacturers last year.”
That article was followed immediately the following day, but this:
Rob Shaw: Where will the ‘voluntary’ BC Hydro measures take us?
AN OPTION, FOR NOW Rob Shaw / Glacier Media – Oct 9, 2023 / 11:39 am
This is an opinion piece, as the local news outlet refers to it, and the author has some important concerns to raise in my province, and I’m seeing these concerns start to be raised in various states south of the border too.
“Did you know BC Hydro can reach into its smart network and shut off your hot water heater when you need a shower in the morning, or lower your thermostat when you are curled up on the couch at night?
Probably not. But it turns out, Hydro is quietly up to all sorts of interesting new ways to directly control how you use its electricity.”
” the latest, called “Peak Rewards,” in which Hydro can lower your thermostat, shut off your hot water heater, turn off your electric vehicle charger and more during “peak time events.”
“Peak time events can happen any time of the day, but most commonly take place between 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., and 4 p.m. and 10 p.m.,” reads the website.
Right now, the program is in a kind of beta status, where you can sign up “voluntarily” and get a $50 annual credit per device.
In order to be eligible, you need specific internet-connected items like a Sinope-brand “load controller.” How would you get one of those, you ask? Simple, Hydro will give you one for free under a totally different “voluntary” program called the “Energy Capacity Management Trial,” in which it offers up a bunch of gear to “help you manage your home’s energy use.”
That program is geared towards people who want to add new appliances or an electric vehicle charger to their home, but have maxed out the capacity and are facing a costly upgrade to their service panel. Hydro can solve that, in exchange for these new internet-connected switching devices that help manage the existing load.”
“Time-of-use pricing makes perfect sense on paper, in that you charge higher electricity rates at peak times of the day to try and push people to use power in off-peak hours.
But it’s also political kryptonite. Try telling families they are going to pay more for electricity to run their ovens during dinner time because it just so happens to be the “peak” hours. Or, stand before voters and explain the financial penalty for using your hot water in the morning when you want to have a shower, because that’s a busy time for the grid.
Good luck. Most people can’t shift those behaviours. You just end up penalizing them for living their lives.
To avoid that kind of blowback, the NDP government and Hydro have made time-of-use pricing — you guessed it — “voluntary.” Again, for now.
Hydro’s proposed new system will give you a 5 cent per kilowatt hour credit for electricity used from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m., and ding you an extra 5 cent per kilowatt hour for electricity used during “peak” 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.”
Remember the two-tier pricing that Fortis has in place had recently scrapped as of a year or so ago because of customer complaints??? Apparently we should try this again with the OTHER electricity provider in the province that just so happens to be a crown corporation!
“By billing all of these new initiatives as “voluntary,” and accompanying them with rebates, Hydro is glossing over the fact it’s gaining more and more direct control of the internet-enabled electricity infrastructure in peoples homes.”
Well, if you clicked that article link, you will have tripped across frequent mentions that this should benefit people who charge their EV’s overnight. So yes, we’re still talking about cars here, talking about electricity, and. . . well. . . about how connected everything is! Internet of Things is going to bite everyone who doesn’t tow the line in the future!
Let’s take a look at the most recent article to cross my desk now.
Will connected cars mean the end of speeding?
THE END OF SPEEDING? Mark Richardson / The Globe and Mail – Dec 12, 2023 / 5:58 pm
How will connected cars handle speeding??? Let’s take a look. . . remember the first article’s thoughts around potential hacking and dangers that already exist to the drivers of connected cars!
“…the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) wants to implement “intelligent speed assistance technology” in new vehicles, and to do so as soon as possible.
In the NTSB’s own words: “Intelligent speed assistance technology, or ISA, uses a car’s GPS location compared with a database of posted speed limits and its on-board cameras to help ensure safe and legal speeds. Passive ISA systems warn a driver when the vehicle exceeds the speed limit through visual, sound or haptic alerts, and the driver is responsible for slowing the car. Active systems include mechanisms that make it more difficult, but not impossible, to increase the speed of a vehicle above the posted speed limit, and those that electronically limit the speed of the vehicle to fully prevent drivers from exceeding the speed limit.””
“…it’s recommending that car manufacturers install ISA technology in all new passenger vehicles. At a minimum, this will warn drivers when a vehicle is speeding. It also wants to assist states in implementing ISA interlock programs (mandatory speed limiters) for repeat speeding offenders.
This won’t be hard to do. Most new vehicles are already connected to GPS signals that tell their drivers what the local speed limit is, and some of those will change the colour of the speed readout to warn when the limit is being exceeded. “
“There’s been no push in Canada for such legislation – at least, not yet, says David Adams, president of the Global Automakers of Canada, which represents 15 automakers. “My view is we’re going down this road anyway,” he says.”
These articles line up with other concerns I’ve shared around 15 min cities, smart cities, and what can happen to local grids if regions fall short of string puller demands and expectations!
Since that article was written January 2023, the Oxford project has been met with major pushback by Londoners in England! Rebel News dedicated an entire section of their news site to this issue. You can read a number of related articles on the subject at that link.
This joins other articles such as one on “Lower Traffic Neighbourhoods”.
In February of 2023, they reported on a massive protest in Oxford over traffic filters being installed.
Remember, the technology is already in place for governments and string pullers to use against the movement of a connected car. They are allowing hackers and criminals to use the tech right now, but in the not -too-distant future, arguments such as that of BC Hydro for electrical usage and giving them permission to remote-control your home, will quickly grow to include government remote-controlling your car!
Have you figured out what’s in your 1-hour walking range yet??? Your one-hour bicycle range??? Assuming you even get that distance on foot or cycle power in the future? What is missing in that 2hr round trip that would require motorized travel to deal with? Time to build tangibly-supportive community where you live to address those shortfalls before it’s too late. Two links to help with this concept are in my blog’s 15min city link above.
This has been on my own radar for at least two decades now! I’ve repeatedly warned to anyone who will listen, NOT to initiate a civil war in the USA, because if they do, groups on the sidelines will take over and it won’t be who or what anyone wants on either side of the civil war! These groups have been waiting in the wings a long time, and to call them sleeper cells is wise, because that is what they are. The recently blown-open border in the last couple years isn’t helping the situation. The all-out destruction of the Biblical concept of marriage and family in recent years is also a perfect setup for obliteration of up to 1/3rd (seemingly) of the US population should those in the wings succeed in taking over.
When the WEF said they wanted to change the face of the west, when they said they wanted to undo what they deem to be years and centuries of white colonialism, I’m not sure they realized what would happen to not just the “face” of the west, but the functional, religious, educational and militaristic institutions as well. This is because the change of face is being led by two fronts. The hispanic/central American influx was just the tip of the iceburg and multiple sources now say illegals are flooding in from muslim countries, chinese-interest-controlled countries, and even China itself. Those of us who have had dreams where we see foreign soldiers in the street of oriental description are sitting up and taking notice. Those weren’t dreams! They were forecasts of what is coming!
Now, considering who made the following warning:
“This comes on the heels of Wray’s previous remarks in late October warning that terror sleeper cells sympathetic to Hamas or Iran could “conduct attacks here on our own soil.””
It is reasonable to assume that the Deep State the FBI belongs to, will have blood on their hands when the uprisings finally happen and the groups in the wings take over. How well the Deep State itself survives the uprising remains to be seen as well, because they are merely useful pawns in the hands of those who want to take over America! They are allowed to feel they have some control, some sway, and some leverage. . . for now! But they too need to be looking over their shoulders now. Because the groups they think are doing the bidding of the Deep State, are taking up positions in and around the USA, that will obliterate any three-letter agency that doesn’t fall in line once they take over. The Deep State seems oblivious to the fact that these sleeper cells believe wholeheartedly in “take no prisoners”, and the mental/emotional/physical/social abuse suffered by Israeli hostages at the hands of Hamas, reveals psychological warfare that aims to destroy as well, leaving behind living husks where there were once people.
The string pullers aren’t as safe as they currently think they are. The relative tolerance that’s been pushed since the early ’90’s on North American and western populations is setting up those populations for easy knock-offs once the groups in the wings take hold. Only those who know Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour will be safe when that day comes. That safety won’t be in the form of physical safety necessarily, don’t misunderstand me here. God tells us in His Word not to fear he who can kill the body, that’s the enemy of our souls and all who follow him. We are told to fear He who can kill the body and soul in hell, which is God Himself, and as believers we have moved from children of wrath, to children of light. Therefore, the safety I speak of will be that of the safety of mind, soul and spirit. If they kill us, they have only killed the body, they can’t harm us any further because they sent us on to a far better place against their better judgement.
But for those who choose not to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, choosing instead to lead a life that is acceptable to the public as it stands right now. . . those will face the greatest threats both in life and in death. This is because the groups waiting in the wings are largely Islamic in nature, and lifestyles acceptable to the current public are anathema to the muslim religion! Their holy book says to kill those who lead alternative lifestyles! This is serious stuff!
It is important, if you haven’t already, to get right with God, to accept His gift of Salvation if you haven’t yet done so, and to ensure your loved ones have as well. Life as we know it in the western world is hurtling headlong toward this eventual showdown, and when it happens, it will shock the world! You want to be sure that you know where you will go when you die, and that your choice was heaven prior to death because after death, you can’t change your choice of destination. The choice is to be made now while you are in your God-given body.
The string pullers think they know what they are doing. But I have a strong suspicion they will not be ready for what rises up against them, and the sources of that uprising. They are blinded by their own world domination goals. I urge you to wake up, and set your spiritual life in order before it’s too late!

Edited to share now.
A friend asked me to review a 49min video about the nature of “Mystery Babylon”. In more recent years I will not return to Youtube, but that was where this video was shared at the time. If you find it elsewhere, let me know and I’ll update the link.
Using Scriptures that are often interpreted to mean other nations or scenarios in end-time theology, it is highly possible this video may be on to something quite profound as it relates to not only “Mystery Babylon”, but also the national/religious nature of Anti-Christ embodied (because as we know, the spirit of anti-Christ already exists in the world). The voice-over for this video sounded very mechanical, as if read by an e-reader’s vocal reading of a book. Pauses were in unnatural places and tones of voice for certain repeated questions remained unchanged from one question to the next. My son feels the author may have allowed the use of an e-reader’s voice so that if the subject of the video tried to track them down, they’d end up in a huge list of potential voice actors as opposed to the author themselves.
If you have not yet read my piece on ISIS, you’ll want to read that, as this continues the train of thought.
The video made a convincing case for “Mystery Babylon” to be located between Teman and Dedan mentioned in Isaiah, and near the sea. The location suggested is that of Mecca, the holiest city/site of the religion of Islam. This video went further back in history than my piece on ISIS,
suggesting a list of “husband/wife” god/goddess pairings that took their cues from the “original” pairing of that of Nimrod and his own wife who was actually his mother according to some historical references to the king. The video put forth that this pairing is found in a number of
Middle Eastern mythos and religions, and that even the moon god found in the Valley of Sin at the time the Hebrews passed through, had a wife as well, also a moon god.
One of the points of interest brought out by this video was the nature of sun and moon worship down through the centuries, and how every major god/goddess was symbolized by one or other other, or both together. Whenever the moon would be symbolized, it would be in the form of a crescent, which occasionally was used as a substitute for the horns of a calf or bull as in the golden calf the Hebrews formed in the desert. ISIS herself, when depicted, often wears such a headdress herself with a snake rearing in front As stated in my previous article, ISIS had various forms, one of which was/is a snake. As my daughter has pointed out, we have seen the snake first in the Garden of Eden, then in Babylonian and Egyptian mythos, and again in Southern American mythos. The crescent moon and the snake have characterized satan’s primary choice of symbolism for himself down through time even to present day Islam.
As more and more research into the history and current realities of Islam is engaged in by various sources, it is becoming more and more likely that the man of perdition will come from that religion. He will not regard women, and will make active use of modern-day technology. The current seal for Islam shows the numbers 666 in both Hebrew and Greek stylized script. Hmmm. . . A few thoughts came out of watching this video.
Matthew 24:23-26 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
The time of the Great Deception is approaching! The props are dropping into place like flies to honey if one knows where to look. The compartmentalized way western society has been taught to look at life is actually proving to be the necessary blindfold required to facilitate the Great Deception. In order to see this taking place, one must be a student of history, ancient civilization, archaeology, mythology, literature, the arts, and have an eye to the economic, political, and religious climates reaching back at least as far as WW2.
Scripture said that when the Great Deception occurs, even the Very Elect could be deceived “if it were possible”. The only way this will become possible is for Christians and Jews to be unaware of the web satan is weaving around them and falling for the trap, not realizing the danger until it’s too late.
One of the guy-wires in this web of deceit, is indeed the mythos of the various ancient peoples around the world. When you begin to examine the various deities, their symbols that depict them, and how they typically behave, you get a pretty interesting picture of the spirit realm disguised as a children’s story. The religious rituals that accompanied these stories however, got quite gruesome at times in ancient history, but also in the not so distant history of places such as South America where the over-arching nature of the snake god was such that human sacrifice was believed to give him power, “because each person’s heart holds a little bit of the sun and when you give back that bit, you make the sun stronger”. The plains natives of North America had some disturbing sun-worshipping practises of their own that I observed going through an Alberta museum one time years ago. I can still see some of those rituals in my head, and remember a pole I walked around that was part of such rituals to the sun. Deities that were represented in these mythos and false religions took on the forms of serpents, dogs, snakes, bulls, goats, or the sun or moon.
Another guy-wire in this web of deceit is what is known as Kabbalah, or Jewish mysticism. This teaching has been around long enough that God speaks out against it in the Torah. However, in spite of that, there are various high-ranking rabbis over the years who have actively taught Kabbalah. I have a 10-page article that I wrote years ago, that can be offered if anyone wishes to read up on what Kabbalah is and how it’s woven its way into the early days of Masonry, gnosticism, agnosticism, New Age, and paganism. In fact, one of the thinner guy-wires in this web of deceit is the Masonic Lodge. What is true in the bottom rungs of this club is no-longer true at the top, and by the time you get to the top, the teachings and rituals are more reminiscent of Islam than any active member will admit. I have read personal stories of ex-high-level masons who not only wrote about this kind of thing, but somehow managed to snap pictures on occasion as well. The hat and outfit worn by the Shriners should be a dead give-away, but amazingly enough, it is not.
The crescent moon’s thread throughout history is a very thick guy-wire in this web, but somehow it is regularly missed as a key defining factor in this web of deceit Perhaps the fact it is only seen as a symbol is what lowers its importance in the minds of many.
Also along the religious front is the guy-wire concept of “Mother”. In the deities leading up to the current god of Islam, “Mother” was the term given to such goddesses as Isis, Dianna, and others. It’s an interesting point made in the video that the same cry the Ephesians threw up over their beloved goddess Dianna, is the same cry we hear today about the god of Islam. Two moves currently afoot in the world of Christendom should therefore ring warning bells and red lights all over the place! The first smaller guy-wire in this web of deceit is the concept of Chrislam whereby people are teaching ostensibly under the guise of Christology, that the god of Islam and the God of the Bible are one and the same. They are not! The second smaller guy-wire in this portion of the web lies with the Catholic church.
Actually, perhaps that should be worded to say, the next MAJOR guy-wire in this web relates to the Catholic church organization! The beginnings of the Catholic church under the rule of Constantine are pause for concern all by themselves. The style and understanding of false gods at the time had the duality mentioned earlier, a husband/wife-king/queen-mother/father system. Under the new church entity, we suddenly have God the Father and Mary Queen of Heaven. Fast-forward 1.5 millennia later, and we have the latest pope trying to regather the protestant church back under the banner of the “Mother” church!
The ground-work has been laid and is now being acted on more boldly by those knowingly or unknowingly under satan’s influence. Today’s symbol of the moon is seen on either a red or green background with a star in the centre. It may or may not be seen in tandem with a sickle or
pair of swords. From the red fezz of the Shriners who also carry a ceremonial sickle dagger, to the flags of Turkey and Russia, to the headbands of ISIS and other Islamic terrorist groups, we see the moon god more active than ever on the world stage. The snake is seen wrapped around the base of the world tree and present in some iterations of the chakras taught by the Kabbalistic teachings that have shaped modern-day pagan, New Age, and (a)gnostic teachings. The bull and dog are both active again. I sensed in my spirit that the minotaur of Greeko/Roman mythology is walking the labyrinth again!
Alongside the rise of ancient symbolism via Islam is the rise of the concept of “Mother”. The pagans call her “Mother Earth” and have built a religion out of the concepts of conservation, stewardship and recycling. While Scripture advocates stewardship of the earth, it does not
advocate worshipping the ground we walk on, but many ancient yet modern groups have done and still do worship the earth. Now learning of the new Catholic pope referring to the “Mother Church”, and one can begin to see how the web is forming.
For those of Jewish descent, Kabbalah isn’t the only guy-wire that will be used to trap them. The issue of blindness regarding who the Messiah is will also be a very thick guy-wire in this web of deceit Many will be caught in this portion of the web when the man of sin is revealed and stands in the third Temple proclaiming himself to be god. Those not caught in this web will see Christ return to the Mount of Olives and Scripture says they will mourn as they look on Him whom they pierced.
The stone that is worshipped at Mecca has been seen by the video creator as being a counterfeit stone to Jesus Himself being called the Chief Cornerstone. This is assessment is easily seen by the fact that the meteor enshrined at Mecca has been placed at the corner of the large cube. We often think of the anti in anti-Christ as meaning “against”, and while that is true, this video points out other equally valid and accurate definitions that become easily seen the more one looks at the nature of Islam. “Anti” can also mean substitute. So where we have Christ referred to in the Psalms as the Sun with healing in His wings, we have a moon god. Where we have Christ as the Chief Cornerstone, we have a meteorite that fell from the heavens. Where we have God’s favourite number 7, we have the unfinished number 6. Interestingly, the Greek name for this number is “stigma”. Most assuredly a stigma has been attached to the number 6, and even to the compilation 666. Even a physical comparison between the ancient Egyptian ankh and the Cross shows up on this list. The ankh was only to be worn by priests and royalty, was carried by Isis, and if found on a commoner, resulted in death. It was deemed to be a symbol of life, but it brought death to the common man. The Cross however, being a symbol of death by cruel torture, brings life to the common man through belief in the One who rose from the dead. A symbol of life that brings death, versus a symbol of death that brings life.
This video suggests through various verses of Scripture, that even as we believe the Roman Empire never died, neither did the Ottoman Empire and that when it rises again, it will be in the seat of the final headquarters for the former Roman Empire, that of Istanbul, Turkey. The
reasoning here is interesting as I’d never thought of Turkey in this manner, but it is plausible. Even more however, is the realization that the very name of this city has “bul” in it, reminiscent of the Babylonian false gods “bel” and “bellit”. “bul” also makes me think of “bull” which once again brings to mind the horns holding the sun, which can easily be blurred into looking like the crescent moon holding the sun. If I paraphrase the English letters of this city, I get “its a bull”.
Do I agree that Mecca and Istanbul both have roles to play in the endtime accounts of Revelation, Ezekiel, Isaiah and Daniel? After seeing the Scriptures given that I typically interpreted differently, I am willing to venture that perhaps I’d seen them in too Western a light before, and that it is highly possible these locations could be who the video purports them to be. These interpretations are not based on current events this time round, but on historical and archaeological accounts instead. Most western interpretations look only at what is happening now, and as a result, can come up with skewed views of current events. This is why I said at the beginning, that to see the web of deceit being woven, one must be a student of ancient times as well as of the current time. The reason for this is very simple. The enemy only has one way of doing things. When you look back through history, you discover that the enemy tried to hide his identity in human affairs by splitting up his attributes across various mythologies and false religions around the world. Unfortunately, the similarities become a little too obvious to the Christian student of such things who has an ear open to the Holy Spirit. Consequently, not only can the enemy hide his identity any longer, but neither can he hide is agenda.
If Jews and Christians are to avoid being taken in by the Great Deception, they need to:
- Accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Messiah
- Refuse to buy into the concepts of Kabbalah and Chrislam
- Refuse to rejoin “Mother Church”
- Refuse to worship “Mother Earth”
- Seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance, wisdom, and discernment to be able to test the spirits and discern truth from counterfeit
- Exalt Christ as the head cornerstone
One of the scenes shown in the video brought to mind several disturbing thoughts. The scene was of the swirling mass of humanity engaged in the hajj. To my daughter, it reminded her of a whirlpool of the kind and size that would strike fear into the hearts of fishermen out on the ocean. They knew that to get their boat even to the ring’s edge of such a maelstrom was asking for trouble. Each pilgrim to Mecca walks around the cube 7 times before kissing the stone. I couldn’t help thinking of the whirlpool analogy, with pilgrims being sucked into the maelstrom eventually being dragged down to the bottom, potentially to their death. Every few years I hear of deaths by trampling occurring at the time of the hajj.
This brought to mind a blogger’s tale of attending a major music festival in the US a number of years ago, known as “The Burning Man Music Festival”. Each year this festival brings in a wide range of bands and music groups. According to pictures taken by this blogger, a huge likeness of a man is set up out on the desert, and at it’s base a kind of bonfire is lit and kept burning during the festival. While I’m sure various attendees might experience different things, the experience this man would relate has never left me due to it’s spiritually dire nature. He described a winding path leading down to the base of this “burning man”. He described a nearby band stage where certain music began to play. As he joined others winding their way down to the base of the “burning man”, the music gradually and persistently got louder to the point where half-way down, his own heart began to beat uncharacteristically in his chest. He began to get fearful but realized he couldn’t turn around because of the mass of people behind him. When he got to the bottom, he described what appeared to be a modern-day mass orgie going on with strangers doing each other in broad afternoon daylight.
The concept of the “burning man” however, got it’s start in a less festive atmosphere when the Druids roamed the isles of the UK. They would set up scaffolding in the form of a man and stuff it with anyone who failed their “trick or treat”. They would fill the holes with straw, leading others to believe they’d built a huge scarecrow, and then burn it. Human sacrifice on one hand, and supposedly dire consequences for having disgraced the gods on the other. Druids practised a form of witchcraft/satanism and there are still people out there today who practise it more secretly and supposedly more humanely. However witchcraft teaches many of the concepts first introduced by Kabbalah.
The web has been in the building process ever since satan was forced to live on earth. Even his audience before God to accuse the brethren will one day come to a swift end and he’ll be cast down to earth forever! It will be at that time that the snake’s attempted wily ways will ensnare as many as possible who have not seen the web tightening around their ankles prior to that time. Guy wires are the basis upon which the sticky wires are placed. There are many, many iterations and results of Kabbalah in a wide range of global cultures. There are just as many iterations and results of the husband/wife false god display within orthodox so-called Christian circles. The kabbalistic concept that all roads to enlightenment are the same is now translated into “all roads lead to heaven” and is now going further to claim that both God and the false god of Islam are one and the same. With major Christian preachers encouraging the concept of Chrislam and sitting down with the pope to discuss merging protestant denominations with the “Mother Church”, alarm bells are going off all over this writer’s heart, mind and spirit.
The enemy has taken the concept of Molech and taken it from a middle-ages style gruesome death machine and turned it into a music festival. The god of self will be the basis upon which the web becomes the noose that captures unsuspecting souls, dragging them down to their eternal death.
Will you be caught in the Great Deception? Will the enticing whirlpool of eternal death catch you dancing around it’s edges? Will you dance your way down to the feet of Molech, perhaps never to come up again? The choice is yours. Open your eyes to the evidence laying about your feet, and get out of the web while you still can!
Originally written back in 2014, edited to share today:
Oh what amazing webs we weave when we look at current events not merely from the perspective the Christian Scriptures or the Jewish writings, but also from the world of mythology. As has been observed not only by myself, but by others as well, every lie has been based on a shred of truth. To unravel the lie successfully, one must find the shred of truth and expose the lie for what it really is. Sometimes in doing this, a truth far too close to the Scriptures is found and we learn the reason why the lie was concocted in the first place.
So it is with our arch-enemy, satan himself, who is so far below God’s rule and power that he and his minions are the only created beings that mankind is allowed to truly hate! Consequently, standard writing convention to capitalize names will not be followed when in reference to our eternal foe. We learn in the Garden of Eden, that by tempting Eve to sin, God’s prize creation would be plunged into spiritual death and therefore separation from God. It was an attempt to strike back at God for being cast to the earth after pride filled his own heart to reach for aspirations greater than God. satan became known as the god of this world, the devil, the father of lies, etc. In order to further turn mankind away from God, the concept of false gods was born very early in human history. People began to tell stories about their gods and goddesses, and of course the enemy of our souls was more than happy to lend a hand in the process. For most people today, ancient mythologies are nothing more than cute stories made up to explain how life came to be, how nations were formed, how seasons developed, when fire was discovered, etc.
BUT!!! Yes, that’s a big but! Buts tend to get really big by the time they get kicked!
6,000+ years have now gone by since that first encounter in the Garden. The being into which satan had gone was known as a serpent. This created creature would forever typify satan thereafter, and it’s entire line of existence altered to never again walk on four legs, although biologists have discovered skeletal left-over stubs where shoulder and hip joints used to be. It is important for us to remember this poor creature and it’s unfortunate connection to the enemy of our souls, as satan is now known in the New Covenant as “that serpant who is the devil”.
In the year 2014, 13 years after terrorists struck the World Trade Center and killed over 3,000 people, the “war on terror” had mixed results. In some countries, major terror organizations were debilitated, in other countries, they became a rag-tag bunch jumping out seemingly at random to carry on their mandate of terror. However, in still other countries, in the some of the same countries where previous groups used to reign, came a supposedly “new” group, calling themselves ISIS. The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria supposedly formed out of nowhere with an amazing and surprising amount of weaponry and fire power. Their territory as of 2014 spanned parts of Syria, Lebanon and Iraq and had largely driven or killed Christians from their homes in Mosul, Iraq, and declared that even moderate Muslims who did not adhere to Sharia Law and caliphate rule, would be hunted down and purged. We won’t go into the history of this group for today’s discussion. Instead, we will consider what role this new face on the world stage may play in end-time eschatology according to both Scripture, and, believe it or not, ancient mythos.
Allow me to begin with the first 11 verses of Revelation 6:
Revelation 6:1-11 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. 3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. 5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. 7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. 9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Many of us who pay attention to world events and seek God’s Word for answers, have observed that at least three of these four horsemen have already been riding at various frequencies for awhile now. However, in recent years, there has been an incredible uptick in certain regions of the world losing their peace and tranquility in exchange for ongoing turmoil, death, destruction, and as a result, illnesses that world health organizations thought were long dead. Before I bring ISIS back into the equation, allow me to begin placing dots on the page and drawing lines between them. We will return to this passage after awhile.
The acronym chosen by this new Islamic entity is of immense interest to the student of ancient history who strongly believes in both the angelic and demonic sides of the spirit realm. This author has already run into other situations where names given to mythological characters in stories made up about the gods and goddesses, have actually been the real names of demons themselves. This is what I referred to earlier when I said that the enemy willingly gave a helping hand to those weaving tales about the gods they worshipped. The hand that was lent began with the names of these false gods but extended far beyond that, as we will see.
Take the ancient Egyptian goddess, ISIS. Various myths created around her share how she went about hunting down all the pieces of her dead husband and with the help of the “god of the dead” represented by a jackal, embalmed her husband back together, after which he was forced to live in the realm of the dead. ISIS is considered still, to be the goddess of the moon, magic, life, health, marriage and love. She was often depicted with a cow’s head and/or had a sun disk on her head held between two cow horns (which begs the question, who was behind the golden calf as depicted in both Scripture and pottery of the time?). She was known to appear as a snake, a bird, a dog, and whose brother had given birth to the jackal himself who was known as the god of the dead. She is still worshipped by various groups today.
ISIS has counterparts in the mythos and false religions of other peoples of the ancient world as well. Artemis for example, was also the goddess of the moon, the hunt, and often caused major destruction in the stories she shows up in. Aztec lore told of a feathered serpent by name of Quetzacoatl who was called the evening/morning star, was the god of death and resurrection, patron god of the priests, and had a dog for a sidekick which was felt to be a healer.
The “men” in ISIS’s “life” were brothers, one of which was Set/Seth who was the god of storms, desert, and chaos.
Fast forward to the Hebrew wanderings in the wilderness and we come across a “wilderness of Sin” (see Exodus 16:1, according to Easton’s Bible Dictionary: “narrow plain of el-Markha, which stretches along the eastern shore of the Red Sea for several miles toward the promontory of Ras Mohammed”). Sin was the name of a moon god at that time. This god did not have many followers, but would be resurrected by Mohammed and given prominence under his other name, Allah. This particular moon god would become the god of the Islamic faith.
Now. . . similarities are these:
We have the moon mentioned frequently. We have a dog mentioned at least twice. We have serpents and snakes. We have the hunt mentioned at least twice. If you look further into each of these characters, you discover even more similarities among these apparently disparate mythos. Suffice to say that the serpent we met in the Garden of Eden, is still alive and well, and making himself known to his followers in that form! That serpent we met in the garden is still trying to cause destruction and still trying to take as many human souls down to hell as he can.
The world thought it had learned a lesson after punishing Germany for it’s leaders’ role in exterminating Jews in the Holocaust. However a new threat has risen on the world stage, and this one is not as localized as a mere country. The religion of Islam teaches that “people of the book” must be made subservient and/or die. They are classified as infidels. If they agree to be subservient, they are known as Dhimmi’s and treated worse than the Dhalit caste in India. The world stood by in shock as the new and improved ISIS marched on stage and promptly began killing any and all Christians who did not flee Mosul, one of the largest cities in Iraq. This group is only interested in die-hard, radical followers of Islam, as Monday August 4th, news came out that they were targeting moderate muslims as well.
The observation was made back in 2014 that ISIS was on the hunt! Only this time, we are not talking about a quaint story made up to tell the tales of a fictional goddess. We are talking about a real entity behind a real group, hunting for the precious life! Just as Osiris could no longer move among the living when he was pieced back together, all those hunted down and killed by the terrorist group known as ISIS, will find themselves facing one of two eternal destinations. If they were God-fearing Christians, they will suddenly find themselves in Heaven, joining the martyrs under the altar. If they were god-fearing muslims they will suddenly find themselves in hell wondering why there is no wine for the women and no virgins for the men. Allow me to share the first 12 verses out of Joel chapter 3:
Joel 3:1-12 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, 2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. 3 And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink. 4 Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head; 5 Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things: 6 The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border. 7 Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head: 8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD hath spoken it. 9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: 10 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong. 11 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD. 12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
While the entire passage is of note, take a re-read of verse three above. God knew this false religion would rise, and knew what kind of after-life would be taught to its adherents. This passage has been current news now for at least 20 years or more. It is not yet completed, and there is more in this chapter yet to be engaged in as well. But we are living in this time!
This author heard two dreams from two different people both shared to me on the same night! Both dreams saw the dreamer being hunted. One dreamer was being chased by a powerful computer. The other dreamer never saw what was chasing them, but apparently died without knowing it. Both dreamers were shaken by what they experienced. One is a Christian, the other is a non-practicing muslim.
When these dreams were shared, we had entered the constellation of Draco as of July 24th 2014, and it was in our visibility of the stars until August 23rd. Many artistic depictions of dragons in history were very serpentine, very snake-like, some with wings and some without, some feathered and some scaled. Is this coincidence that these dreams would come to these people just as that celestial transition was occurring?
I believe personally, that the pale horse is now riding, and may have begun riding around 2010. When you stop to consider the geographical regions of the globe currently under voluntary or forced islamic rule, you will come up with roughly one-fourth of the planet. Who is this pale horse? Isn’t the moon described as being pale?
