The End of the World
|
||
|
|
a commentary by Jerry W. Decker
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Amid recent world events, many people we know and come in contact
|
||
|
|
with have voiced concern that the end times might be upon us as
|
||
|
|
predicted in the biblical chapter of Revelations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The invasion of Kuwait by Iraq with the subsequent increase in oil
|
||
|
|
prices brought on armed responses from the majority of world powers
|
||
|
|
directed at Iraq and the actions of Saddam Hussein.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These armed responses have included trade embargoes and is likely to
|
||
|
|
lead to a condition of war, not yet decided at the time of this
|
||
|
|
writing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As a matter of curiosity, I dug out some information regarding
|
||
|
|
Revelations and a relatively successful "modern" seer known as
|
||
|
|
Nostradamus. It seems timely to include this on the KeelyNet for
|
||
|
|
those who might find it of interest.
|
||
|
|
|
||

|
The Biblical reference to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse tells
|
||
|
|
what will precede the final days.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on
|
||
|
|
the throne a book written within and on the backside,
|
||
|
|
sealed with seven seals.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The book could only be opened by he who was worthy and that person
|
||
|
|
proved to be the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David,
|
||
|
|
known as Jesus Christ.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Apocalypse came from the Greek word "apokalyptein - to disclose".
|
||
|
|
It is defined as ANY revelation of a violent struggle in WHICH EVIL
|
||
|
|
WILL BE DESTROYED.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As the seals were broken, the following events transpired :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Seal One - A white horse sprung forth, bearing a crowned man
|
||
|
|
CONQUER holding a bow. His task was to CONQUER, a distinct
|
||
|
|
indication of war.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Seal Two - A red horse sprung forth, mounted by a man holding
|
||
|
|
POWER a great sword. He had POWER and his task was to
|
||
|
|
take peace from the earth, that men should kill one
|
||
|
|
another.

|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Seal Three - A black horse sprung forth, mounted by a man
|
||
|
|
FAMINE holding a pair of balances in his hand. A voice
|
||
|
|
said, "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." This can be interpreted
|
||
|
|
as FAMINE.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Seal Four - A pale horse sprang forth, mounted by Death, and
|
||
|
|
DEATH Hell followed with him. Power was given to them to
|
||
|
|
kill with sword, hunger and death, and with the
|
||
|
|
beasts of the earth. Here we have Pestilence,
|
||
|
|
disease and death.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Seal Five - Released were the souls of them who were slain for
|
||
|
|
REST the word of God. White robes were given to them
|
||
|
|
and they were told to rest yet awhile longer, UNTIL
|
||
|
|
THEIR FELLOW-SERVANTS AND BRETHREN SHOULD BE KILLED
|
||
|
|
AS THEY WERE (now).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Seal Six - A great earthquake was released which blotted the
|
||
|
|
EARTHQUAKE sun and darkened the moon. The stars of heaven
|
||
|
|
rained down onto the Earth as if shaken from the
|
||
|
|
sky. Heaven rolled back and every mountain and
|
||
|
|
island moved from their places.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Prior to the opening of the Seventh Seal comes the time which the
|
||
|
|
Pentecost faith terms the "Rapture". Rapture defined is the state
|
||
|
|
of being carried away with joy, love, etc. - ecstasy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rapture in a biblical context begins when God instructs the four
|
||
|
|
angels standing on the four corners of the Earth to hurt not the
|
||
|
|
Earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the
|
||
|
|
servants of our God in their foreheads.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is where the number 144,000 comes in taken from the tribes of
|
||
|
|
the children of Israel. 12,000 from each of 12 tribes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this event, are large numbers of people dressed in white robes.
|
||
|
|
These are they which came out of the great tribulation (exacted by
|
||
|
|
the Four Horsemen), and who have washed their robes to become white
|
||
|
|
in the blood of the Lamb.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All those before the throne of God shall hunger no more, neither
|
||
|
|
shall they thirst, neither shall the sun light on them nor any heat.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Only after the Rapture is the Seventh Seal opened, which we will not
|
||
|
|
pursue. Our main concern here is the Four Horsemen and what threat
|
||
|
|
they might represent to our future.

The celebrated seer Nostradamus was born in December, 1503, in Remy
|
||
|
|
De Provence, in the south-east of France, even as a child he showed
|
||
|
|
pronounced intellectual and precognitive powers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Although qualified as a doctor, he was powerfully attracted to
|
||
|
|
astrology or what he called "the celestial science".

|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In 1555, after months of seclusion in his secret study, Nostradamus
|
||
|
|
published the first of ten books, ALL simply titled Centuries. Each
|
||
|
|
volume contained 100 prophecies, all written in an enigmative
|
||
|
|
verse-form. They covered every country, every period in time, every
|
||
|
|
individual of note - born or unborn.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In Quatrain Three of Century One, he says, "The litters are
|
||
|
|
overturned by the whirlwind and faces are covered by cloaks, the new
|
||
|
|
republic will be troubled by its people. At this time the reds and
|
||
|
|
whites will rule wrongly."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This was seen as a prevision of the 1789 French Revolution, when
|
||
|
|
what Nostradamus called "The Common Advent" - or the seizing of the
|
||
|
|
power by the mob - took place. The 'reds' referred to the colour of
|
||
|
|
the bloodthirsty Revolutionaries, led by Robespierre, and the
|
||
|
|
'whites' to the colour of the overthrown Bourbon rulers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The unsuccessful flight of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette to
|
||
|
|
Varennes in 1791 was graphically described in these words :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By night will come through the forest of Rheines
|
||
|
|
Two partners by roundabout way;
|
||
|
|
The queen, the white stone,
|
||
|
|
The monk-king dressed in grey at Varennes,
|
||
|
|
The elected Capet causes tempest, fire and bloody slicing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The king, of course was a member of the Capet royal line while
|
||
|
|
'bloody slicing' was the guillotine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the same way, he predicted Napoleon:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An emperor will be born near Italy,
|
||
|
|
Who will cost the Empire very dearly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And the emergence of Adolf Hitler (referred to as 'Hister') :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the mountains of Austria, near the Rhine
|
||
|
|
there will be born of simple parents
|
||
|
|
A man who will claim to defend Poland and Hungary
|
||
|
|
And whose fate will never be certain.
|
||
|
|
Beasts wild with hunger will cross the rivers,but
|
||
|
|
The greater part of the battlefield will be against Hister.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Great Fire of London was predicted in this verse :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The blood of the just will be demanded of London
|
||
|
|
Burnt by fire in three times twenty plus six.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Italians had a habit of leaving out the first numeral on dates
|
||
|
|
giving us 3 X 20 + 6 = 666 or 1666.

|
|
|
||
|
|
Before the Great Fire was the Great Plague, predicted by the
|
||
|
|
following :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Great Plague of that maritime city
|
||
|
|
Shall not cease till death is avenged;
|
||
|
|
For the blood of the just taken and condemned through
|
||
|
|
innocence
|
||
|
|
And the Great Dame outraged by feigning saints.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
'Feigning saints' is a reference to the Puritans while the 'Great
|
||
|
|
Dame' is St. Paul's Cathedral, which was destroyed in the fire.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other interpreters have seen the Great Plague as a form of divine
|
||
|
|
retribution targeted the masses who did nothing when Charles I was
|
||
|
|
murdered.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When King Edward VIII abdicated in 1936 for the love of American
|
||
|
|
divorcess, Mrs. Wallis Simpson, Nostradamus predicted :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For not wanting to consent to the divorce,
|
||
|
|
Which afterwards will be recognised as unworthy,
|
||
|
|
The king of the islands will be forced to flee
|
||
|
|
And one put in his place who has no sign of kingship.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
King George VI was crowned in his brother Edwards' place, although
|
||
|
|
he had no experience or training in kingship. George was also
|
||
|
|
physically frail and stuttered.
|
||
|

--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One of the lines seems to indicate the nuclear bombing of Nagasaki
|
||
|
|
and Hiroshima :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Near the harbour and in two cities will be two scourges
|
||
|
|
the like of which have never been seen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
During the war, the Nazis rewrote certain verses of the Centuries
|
||
|
|
volumes which mentioned Hister. These doctored versions were spread
|
||
|
|
as leaflets over France with the intent that they would play on the
|
||
|
|
superstitious and natural distrust of the British.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In a turnabout ploy, British Intelligence favorable rewrote sections
|
||
|
|
to their benefit and distributed thousands of copies in the form of
|
||
|
|
a German astrological magazine called ZENIT. This magazine had
|
||
|
|
ceased publication in 1939.
|
||
|

--------------------------------------------------------------------

What of our times? Specifically the years preceding the long
|
||
|
|
foretold end which is said will come in the year 2000.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A third war is clearly foretold in the Centuries and is predicted to
|
||
|
|
begin before the year 2000. When two great powers unite in a common
|
||
|
|
alliance against the East.

Here we see a seeming fulfillment through the unfolding of recent
|
||
|
|
events.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Specific events:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) Russia releases its hold on many of its countries and is
|
||
|
|
becoming more friendly with America.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) China, seemingly on the verge of democracy, is suddenly
|
||
|
|
pulled back into the Communist grip.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) Iraq invades Kuwait and calls for a Jehad or religious
|
||
|
|
war to call forth the faithful to destroy the unbelievers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4) South Africa continues in its efforts to destroy apartheid
|
||
|
|
which has resulted in tens of thousands of useless deaths.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5) Latin America and the Philippines continue to have
|
||
|
|
problems with the formation and stability of their own
|
||
|
|
government.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6) Japan continues to increase its outside investments as
|
||
|
|
well as fortify its financial position worldwide.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7) The reunification of the two Germany's for the Fourth
|
||
|
|
Reich is imminent.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
What among these recent happenings does our friend Nostradamus see
|
||
|
|
as representing the greatest danger?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When those of the Northern Pole are united together
|
||
|
|
In the East will be great fear and dread....
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One day the two great leaders will be friends,
|
||
|
|
The New Land will be at the height of its powers,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To the man of blood the number is repeated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The unification of the countries of the Northern Pole could mean
|
||
|
|
either the Germany's or the agreement of America and Russia to
|
||
|
|
achieve common goals.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The East could mean the Arabs or the Chinese, although at this time
|
||
|
|
August 25, 1990, the Arabs present the greatest and most obvious
|
||
|
|
threat.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The New Land is a common name which Nostradamus uses for America.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The 'man of blood' is identified as the world's third Anti-Christ
|
||
|
|
(with Napoleon and Hitler being the 1st and 2nd). This man will
|
||
|
|
emerge from China.
|
||
|
|

|
|
||
|
|
We have 9 years until the century mark of 2000. Nostradamus has
|
||
|
|
given what he sees as the precise date of the final destruction :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the year 1999 and seven months
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From the sky will come the great King of Terror...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before and afterwards WAR reigns happily...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
July 1999, the precise date of the Final War.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Who is this King of Terror? There are no other clues regarding this
|
||
|
|
person or event in the Centuries.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Will it be an invasion from another country or from an alien race?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We continue to come across indications of technologies or principles
|
||
|
|
which could lead to advanced technologies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However, FUNDING IS ALL in this reality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Will we be in a position to defend ourselves? Will our technology
|
||
|
|
at that time have grown sufficiently to match the King of Terror who
|
||
|
|
will descend from the skies?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Who knows? Perhaps if we can motivate, focus, organize and give of
|
||
|
|
ourselves for a common, more universal good, we can yet thwart this
|
||
|
|
prediction.
