DEATH GRIP IN THESE LAST DAYS

Just think if the whole Church had been watching just as Jesus commanded and were excitedly seeing His prophetic Word coming to pass before our eyes!

What if all the pastors were crying out and proclaiming the clarion call for all to be ready??

Facebook, the Tower of Babel of modern days, would be abuzz with thousands upon thousands of believers connecting the dots of current end times world events.

All of those belonging to the risen Christ would be sounding the alarm of how today's escalating global chaos was all prophesied for the last days.

Not only would many lukewarm Christians be set ablaze by these facts, but many of the lost would be won for the Kingdom!

As it is, satan, the great deceiver and god of this world, has cleverly immersed much of the Church of Jesus Christ into the enticements of the temporal; to where they are drowning in the pursuits of pleasure. 

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money...lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God – having a form of godliness but denying its power..." (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

Therefore, many professing believers are so devoted to the world; that they don't even want to hear any mention that all the things they are so enamored with, might soon be ending.

If they would only realize, that God's plans set into motion from the beginning of time, will come to pass regardless.

We have to choose to either accept or reject the attractions of this world, offered to us by the enemy, ha satan.

If we choose to accept the world and give it priority; with our time, finances and efforts, we worship not Jesus, but Lucifer:

Matthew 4:8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. ⁹ “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”

As a result, the vast array of worldly pleasures that so many professing Christians cling to with such a death grip...very might well be the death of them!

If only they would realize that the many worldly distractions that now demand much of their attention, will cease to even exist. 

Once the Lord has Raptured those who are ready, the many deceptive allures of the world will vanish instantly and be replaced by an avalanche of disaster, destruction and consuming fear.

The global headlines are growing darker and more grim each day; fulfilling God's prophetic Word and proving that we are now at the end of the age.

It is time to forsake the lusts of worldly seductions and give God and His Kingdom our total devotion.

When Yeshua Ha Mashiach returns, He will leave behind the lukewarm, who belong to the world, to face the wrath and horrors of the Tribulation.

We either belong to the world or to the Lord. We CANNOT have it both ways! IT IS TIME TO MAKE A CLEAR CHOICE!!

Matthew 25:30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

 

 

 

WAS THE CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE A WARNING OR SIGNAL FROM GOD?

Everyone knows the basic mechanics of earthquakes and that they occur due to slippage of faults, at fault lines.

So it is well realized that earthquakes originate from the sudden movements of the earth's tectonic plates, close to the earth's surface, along zones of pre-existing weakness called faults.

As such, great earthquakes are associated with major faults (cracks) in the crust. When the faults are locked tightly together, the strain accumulates without producing earthquakes. When the faults relax, the rocks slip and shake the earth.

Incredible as it is, there was NO fault at or near Christchurch, New Zealand, prior to the September 2010 massive 7.0 quake!! 

Instead, it is widely reported that last year's huge quake actually "ripped a new fault line in the Earth's surface".
 

"New Zealand Quake Rips New Fault."

"The powerful earthquake that smashed buildings, cracked roads and twisted rail lines around the New Zealand city of Christchurch also ripped a new fault line in the Earth's surface, a geologist said Sunday".

 

http://www.aolnews.com/world/article/widespread-damage-caused-in-new-zealand-earthquake/19621106

"Earth's surface 'lurches 11ft to the right' as New Zealand earthquake rips new fault line".

"The earthquake that devastated a city in New Zealand tore open a new 11ft fault line in the Earth’s surface."

"The 7.1-magnitude quake which hit Christchurch, the country’s second-largest city, destroyed about 500 buildings and caused an estimated £930million of damage."
 

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1309194/New-Zealand-earthquake-rips-new-fault-line-Earths-surface-lurches-11ft.html#ixzz0ykpVd6Ut

 "Miraculous"

  
The Prime Minister of New Zealand , "who visited earthquake-stricken parts of the country's South Island over the weekend, said 430 houses and another 70 buildings had already been earmarked for demolition by assessment teams."

 

"About 100,000 of the 160,000 homes in the Christchurch, Selwyn and Waimakariri areas had sustained some damage, he added."

"I was awe-struck by the power of the earthquake and the damage it has caused in the city," he told reporters. "It was miraculous that nobody was killed."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-11191105

 The scientific awareness of normal plate tectonics as the cause of earthquakes, gives deeper meaning to the supernatural significance of the 7.0 quake in Christchurch, New Zealand in the fall of 2010.
 

As had been reported, the earth's surface just "lurched" and ripped a new fault line. 

This event is surely phenomenal and shows the handprint of God as the crust just ripped open, while sparing the lives of the entire populace of the city.

 As the Prime Minister stated "It was "miraculous that nobody was killed".

 

Even though there were more than 100,000 buildings suffering damage and more than 500 structures so severely damaged that they are slated for demolition, there were no casualties.

 

This is another factor that is confounded the experts. What are the chances that out of more than 500 buildings being destroyed at 4:35 am when most residents would be at home,sleeping, that no lives would be lost?

 

Only two people out of the city's 348,400 residents sustained serious injuries even though "When the earthquake finally ended the city looked like a scene from a horror film".

 

http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/world-news/when-the-earthquake-finally-ended-the-city-looked-like-a-scene-from-a-horror-film-1.1052928

 "Only two serious injuries were reported from the quake as chimneys and walls of older buildings were reduced to rubble and crumbled to the ground. Prime Minister John Key said it was a miracle no one was killed."
 

http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/christchurch-hospital-flat-3759880

  

God mercifully allowed none to perish and only two to be seriously injured with this sign that He has surely presented to us.   

Apparently, God used the city named CHRISTCHURCH in which it was scientifically impossible to experience an earthquake. 

 It therefore appears evident that the God of Heaven ripped open the crust because previously there was NO FAULT LINE at or near Christchurch New Zealand, but there is now!

 

 Research on the other "Christchurch" city on our globe, which is in Barbados, shows that it IS on a fault line.

 

So, the difference between the two is that the Christchurch in Barbados is on a fault line whereas Christchurch, New Zealand was not.

 

 It appears that the Lord purposefully used the "Christchurch" where an earthquake was impossible according to plate tectonics, so as to prove it was His intervention.

 

 Interesting to note, New Zealand's main commercial activity is the raising of sheep.

 

 The fact that sheep are representative of New Zealand further evidences the strong possibility that this is a signal from the Lord to His sheep, the flock of Jesus Christ! 

 

John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

 

It is now time for those who belong to the risen Christ, to hear His voice and divert their focus from the world onto Him, so they can truly be His followers!

IS THIS SECOND CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE SENDING YET ANOTHER WARNING TO CHRIST'S CHURCH??

This week's deadly 6.3 quake in Christchurch, New Zealand may be very significant, especially considering the supernatural implications surrounding the Sept. 2010 quake that indicated that it was a merciful forewarning:

Please see the following entry for the miraculous details:
   

http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2011/02/was-christchurch-earthquake-warning-or.html

As the astonishing facts attest, it appears as if the protection of human lives in the 7.0 earthquake was nothing short of divine providence.

Notable is the fact that there has been a ongoing swarm of earthquakes in Christchurch, from September 2010 to present, numbering upwards to 5000.


http://www.christchurchquakemap.co.nz/

There does indeed seem to be a message from God in these earthquakes at Christchurch, being sent to Christ's Church. 

The September 7.0 quake appears to have been a forewarning to the Church to wake from their slumber and to prepare for the return of Jesus Christ.

Not coincidentally, the September quake occurred during the middle of the night, while most of Christchurch slept.

Interestingly, most of the Church did not heed the first wake up call and continues to remain asleep; oblivious to the many signs that the Lord has been mercifully sending to warn us that we are approaching the end of the age. 

This second,deadly quake at Christchurch may indicate that the Lord is trying to literally shake those who profess to belong to Him, out of their complacency.

It also illustrates that those who refuse to wake up and release their grip on the things of the world and draw close to Him; may suffer severe repercussions as the Tribulation draws closer and closer.

The recent quake also sent a clear message to the the Church of Jesus Christ with the toppling of the spire of an iconic Christchurch cathedral.

A spire atop a church represents reaching up to God. Thus, the removal of this spire may represent the current apathy and indifference of worldwide Christians;many who have become lukewarm as their true love and devotion seems to be for the things of this world and it's fleeting pleasures.

This toppling/removal may signify what can be expected for those who profess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior but give Him not the priority He demands and deserves:

"Witnesses said the quake destroyed the iconic stone Christchurch Cathedral, its spire toppled into a central city square.." 

 May the true followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha Mashiach wake up from their slumber and gather the extra oil needed for the trying days ahead, while we wait for the coming of the Bridegroom!

WHAT DOES THE RECENT "UFO" OVER THE TEMPLE MOUNT HAVE TO DO WITH END TIMES BIBLE PROPHECY?

Within the past several days there have surfaced a total of four separate videos showing a UFO descend, hover, flash brightly and then streak back upwards, directly over the spire of the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Please note that many credible eschatologists (Bible prophecy scholars), for a variety of valid reasons, espouse the belief that UFO's are demonic apparitions and NOT visitors from other planets aka "aliens".

Realizing their true origin, these videos may be viewed in proper perspective. Please also note the significance of their appearance over the Temple Mount, which is the most sought after, fought after, piece of real estate on the globe. 

The Temple Mount is considered holy by the three most dominant world religions: Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

Even more astounding is the fact that this demonic manifestation is directly over the one of the most sacred Islamic mosques, the Dome of the Rock.

Notable is the fact that this amazing well documented sighting occurred on January 28, 2011 when the current spate of Mideast uprisings was just taking a foothold. 

These revolts may be the catalyst that sparks the ignition of the coming Psalm 83 War, prophesied for the last days. 

Please see the following blog entry for the details of this War, which may well mark the beginning of the Tribulation period:

http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-psalm-83-war-here-are-details.html

It is also imperative to realize that Jerusalem is God's holy city, which the world is desiring to divide in these last days. 

Therefore, this recent "UFO" manifestation in Jerusalem, over the Temple Mount and directly over the spire of the Dome of the Rock is extremely significant and nothing short of astounding in light of Bible prophecy.

The four following videos are footage of the very same event, through four different lens from four different vantage points.

They are taken from a range of distances from upon a hillside to within the city; with a variance of differing angles. 

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrmPTnhaHzs&feature=player_embedded

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rY2FFEufsuY

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXbtei8TXfE

These videos can therefore, not be debunked as they are of the same exact sighting by several spectators from varying positions. 

The timing of the activity of descending, hovering, flashing brightly and then streaking upward by the UFO/demonic entity correlates perfectly as it is the exact same in each video.

As such, the timing of this "UFO's" activity further solidifies the veracity of the footage.

Please note that there are a multitude of other rationales, regarding the UFO phenomena, proving that they are indeed demonic manifestations. These proofs will be covered at a later date.

At this time, however, it is vital to realize that most in the field of Bible prophecy believe that UFO phenomena will be used by the enemy as an end times deception that will deceive many as for so many, "seeing is believing":

2 Thessalonians 2:9The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, 10and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie.

From the above Scripture, it appears that God may allow this delusion by Satan, to those who refuse "to love the truth". 

This may be another reason that Scripture so emphasizes the importance of faith; so that the people of God, who love the truth and hold it in their hearts by faith, will not waiver and fall for the lie which will propagated by the great deceiver.

This is why it is so important that Christ followers to be strong in their faith as well as to be alert to the possibility of this coming great delusion. 

We cannot know the timing of the grand appearance of this delusion to the masses and whether or not it will precede the Rapture of the the readied Bride. 

Therefore, it is so important for Christ followers to be in the Word of God and drawing nigh to Him as the days grow short and the times more perilous!

CREDIBLE REASONS FOR THE DYING WILDLIFE PHENOMENON

Following is more amazing insight and fascinating information by my fellow watchman, R. Johnson, regarding plausible explanations for the recent astonishing mystery of the dying wildlife, over the various parts of the globe, in the past week.

"The earthquake which killed 700 people in Chili last February (2010) caused the earth's axis to shift and shortened our days by a very small amount. There have been so many strong earthquakes this last year. I imagine there has been or will be, more shifting as these earthquakes continue, or increase. 
 

Some people are predicting major magnetic pole changes. 

A rapid change might cause birds, which use the magnetic poles to navigate, to become disoriented, maybe enough for a flock of birds to bang into each other causing internal damage and mass death.


I'm a Licensed Amateur Radio operator (Ham Radio). There are several levels of licensing, but those of us who are licensed to transmit on the High Frequencies (long distance frequencies) keep an eye on the current conditions of the eleven year solar cycle. 

We do this because the increase or decrease (depending upon where we are in the cycle) of solar irradiation which reaches earth affects the distance around the globe that we are able to transmit and receive.

We are in the middle of an improving solar cycle that will peak in about 2012. For Ham Radio operators this means that radio frequency bands that have been closed to us are starting to open up and we can communicate with other Hams in countries much father around the globe.


However, some scientists are predicting that as we reach this peak, massive solar disruptions will begin happening and could cause widespread disruptions (similar to those which the electromagnetic pulse EMP bombs we keep hearing about cause). 

Massive power failures, electronic chips which are now found in everything from cars to cell phones to computers to gas pumps to factory machines to stop lights will fail. 

Basically every device we depend upon will stop working and require chip replacements or major electronic repairs to get working again.


You won't be able to use any of them, unless they are stored and used behind shielding. Lead is the best electromagnetic shielding.

Lead is that stuff that the US government so vigorous campaigned against in the 1960s and 1970s for us to take off the walls of our houses because purportedly millions of children ate paint which they told us would caused mental development problems.

So our walls are no longer shielded from electromagnetic waves, nor from various methods of electronic eavesdropping.

I have read that during that time (lead safety campaign) they were also developing technology which would allow them to electronically look and listen through walls and record what they heard/saw. 

The article I read said that lead paint prevented these devices from working and os actually what really prompted the government's Lead Paint removal campaigns in the 60s and 70s.

We may never know if that was true or a coincidence.

While not as good as lead, heavy aluminum shielding blocks electromagnetic waves and can be used to prevent folks from listening to conversations in your house via your cell phone (yes it can easily be done without you even knowing it), prevent the remote viewing of your computer screen (ECHELON), and more importantly, keep computers, cell phones, radios, and other devices you want to still be able to use afterwards working.

Getting back on the topic of electromagnetic disturbances:

The US military's HAARP program (based in Alaska) also has the capably to cause anomalies in the earth's Ionosphere, purportedly used in researching ways to extend the distance of military radio communications. 

I have read that they are also working on extending radio communication for submarines in the ocean.

Some suspect that's a cover for a weapon they have been developing. What they are doing has been compared to the Scalar Electromagnetic Energy weapons (Tesla Howitzers) purportedly developed by the KGB which can send strong EM energy to any point on the globe and even through the earth from one point to another.

These devices are strong enough to cause a heating up or a cooling down of their target area as well as magnetic force field disturbances They can also cause stress to build on fault lines which eventually result in earthquakes. Some reports indicate they can even cause weather changes.

It is rumored that the Russians and others have been increasingly using these weapons to cause earthquakes and disasters in targeted countries around the globe in an attempt to cause increased economic problems and the eventual economic collapse of those countries.

Sounded like Science Fiction to me until I read the following:

"In January, 1960 (now 50 years ago!) Nikita Khrushchev announced to the Presidium:

'We have a new weapon, just within the portfolio of our scientists, so to speak, which is so powerful that, if unrestrainedly used, it could wipe out all life on earth. It is a fantastic weapon.'

The Russians have not yet revealed that weapon, but developed it in secret, and tested it clandestinely to see if the West could understand what was going on, whether the U.S. had discovered the weapon yet. It had not.

In 1997, 37 years after Khrushchev had announced the new (scalar electromagnetic) weapon U.S. Defense Secretary William Cohen gave a warning, suggesting that the U.S. had finally understood the nature and power of the weapon. 

He warned about eco-terrorism using scalar electromagnetic weapons:

"Others [terrorists] are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves...So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations...It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify our [counter terrorism] efforts."

The above quote is from:

http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?read=38963

So G-d may be allowing (or using) man's greedy nature, warmongering, and foolish tampering with physics to cause the huge increase in earthquakes and disasters over the last few years.

Additionally, the Scalar Electromagnetic Energy they can target so precisely to any point on earth might also explain why these massive flocks of birds are dropping dead with internal trauma. 

If they are testing the sending of the same through the water ways that that might explain why the fish are dying with similar conditions.

Maybe they died from artificially caused extremes of heat or cold or disorientation from magnetic force fields, or renal trauma directly caused by the beams which were sent to targeted areas where the animals just happened to be in during beta testing of these devices.

Or, maybe using advance target spotting devices they intentionally looked for large flocks of birds and attacked them intentionally as part of their testing. Maybe the same was done with the fish and whales.

Whatever's going on...the Earth Is Shaking! Shaking like never before!! Causing people to open their eyes.

Maybe some will open their hearts as well!"

WHY IS THE WILDLIFE DYING WORLDWIDE?

Again, I would like to share some very astute observations by my friend, R.Johnson, regarding the alarming and growing massive die offs of fish, birds and marine mammals worldwide:

"I just can not buy the suggestions being given that all of the dead fish, seals, whales, crabs, and birds dropping from the sky or washing up on the shore in massive numbers all around the globe within the first six days of 2011 are isolated events. 

If these were massive numbers of people dropping dead instead of fish and birds, would... we be accepting all of these isolated explanations? I don't think so. 

People are gullible, but not completely ignorant. It is too numerous to be coincidence. It is too global to be irrelevant. The question is:

1. Is it man caused on purpose or by accident?

or

2. Is it G-d caused and part of the birth pains Jesus told us would occur, or part of the tribulation we all hope we were correct in figuring out that the faithful and obedient ones would avoid?

Just realized that both could be true because G-d might choose to use man, as He has done in the past, to bring about His Will and exact punishment.

I'm keeping my flying goggles on, making sure all my flight instruments are working, and preparing for take off. 

 Advising all Christians to perform a preflight assessment and file a flight plan with God."

WHAT IS CAUSING THE MASSIVE BIRD AND MARINE KILL WORLDWIDE?

I would like to share an insightful assessment of the growing mass bird/marine life kill now taking place worldwide.

My friend, R. Johnson, evaluated this unprecedented phenomenon with the below summary, which appraises the current situation with much clarity:


“ 'Mass bird deaths aren't uncommon' ” the government tells us. If that is true then how come no one I know has EVER heard of this happening before??? How come its NEVER been on the news before??? How come suddenly its happening every few days ...around the globe???

“Fireworks, Power Lines, Cold Weather, Difficulty Finding Food..” might be a plausible explanation if it were a single isolated case. However, in multiple cases, in multiple states and countries, with in just a few days of each other, those explanations become a little too hard to swallow. Multiple cases, in multiple states and countries, with in just a few days indicates to me that these events are linked, which points to a common cause or causer.

What do you think is the common cause of mass bird deaths happening with in days of each other all around the globe? Some kind of test or accidental leak of a bio-warfare chemical agent by a government or military organization or terrorist group?

I might be tempted to believe that it is West Nile Virus, or some similar acting, possibly laboratory tweaked, virus since according to the US Government’s Centers for Disease Control website “during the 1999 New York area West Nile Virus epidemic, there was a large die-off of American crows. Since then, West Nile virus has been identified in more than 200 species of birds found dead in the United States.”

(http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/westnile/qa/wnv_birds.htm)

If this is the case then government may not want the public to panic and thus may choose not tell us the truth about this until after the public threat of catching the virus is over.

In the Arkansas and Louisiana cases I might also believe that some toxic gases are evaporating out of the Gulf of Mexico due to the oil spill an forming clouds of toxic gases. Suposedly the dispersant used by BP does have some aerosol properties.

In the mean time, think I’ll stay indoors more!

UPDATE: I just read that more of these incidents are happening around the entire globe:

• 450 red-winged blackbirds, brown-headed cowbirds, grackles and starlings found littering a highway in Baton Rouge, Louisiana

• 3,000 blackbirds on roofs and roads in the small town of Beebe, Arkansas

• Forty thousand 'devil crabs' washed up along the Kent coast near Thanet

• Thousands of drum fish washed along a 20-mile stretch of the Arkansas River

• Tens of thousands (some reports say millions) of small
fish in Chesapeake Bay, Maryland

• Hundreds of snapper fish found dead in New Zealand

• A river in Goldstream Provincial Park, Vancouver Island, Canada turned a mysterious color for an hour before returning to normal. Ministry of Environment teams have begun an investigation and samples have been collected for analysis. No dead fish or animals have yet been found.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1344345/Animal-death-mystery-Jackdaws-Sweden-fish-Brazil-New-Zealand-crabs-England.html

Texas and Kentucky are now reporting dead birds

http://www.necn.com/01/05/11/Hundreds-of-birds-dead-in-western-Ky/landing_health.html?&blockID=3&apID=516b4864d39b4c0787809fd5f7aa5a61

Mass Deaths of Fish and/or birds in Arkansas, Louisiana, Kent, Surrey, Sweden, Kentucky, Texas, Maryland, New Zealand...

I suspect the number of occurrences will keep growing each day.

Thoughts from G-d’s Word:

“I will sweep away the birds of the air and the fish of the sea. The wicked will have only heaps of rubble when I cut man off from the face of the earth, declares the Lord.” Zephaniah 1:3

“Because of this the land mourns, and all who live in it waste away, the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the fish of the sea are dying.” Hosea 4:3 (Read the whole chapter to find out why)

“ Moreover, no man knows when his hour will come. As fish are caught in cruel net, or birds are taken in a snare, so men are trapped by evil times that fall unexpectedly upon them.” Ecclesiastes 9:12

“The fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the beast of the field, every creature that moves along the ground, and all the people on the face of the earth will tremble at my presence. The mountains will be overturned, the cliffs will crumble and every wall will fall to the ground.” Ezekiel 38:20 "
