Svelare i numeri dell’Apocalisse (XIV)

 

Il calendario ebraico e quello gregoriano

Sono state notate alcune “discrepanze” nei calcoli da me eseguiti riguardo la cronologia della settantesima settimana profetica sulla base della sequenza delle festività ebraiche, venute fuori nel tentativo di riconciliare il calendario lunisolare ebraico con quello solare gregoriano per poter stabilire i 1260 giorni della prima metà della settimana e i 1260 della seconda metà, unitamente ai 75 giorni costituiti dalla somma tra i 30 giorni di differenza tra i 1290 della desolazione e i 1260 della fine della settimana (1290 – 1260 = 30) e i 45 giorni aggiuntivi di benedizione, che portano fino al 1335° giorno. Ho dovuto, insomma, “manipolare” i numeri in modo che la settimana contasse 2520 giorni (cioè 1260 + 1260), perché così potesse avere inizio nel giorno, o meglio nella settimana, della Pasqua ebraica e si estendesse fino alla Pasqua che segna la sua fine. Nel fare ciò, è sembrato che le date venissero “forzate” per conformarsi al calendario solare, ossia: perché la settantesima settimana avesse inizio nella Pasqua del 2014, che va dal 15 al 22/23 aprile 2014, ho scelto di proposito la data dell’ultimo giorno come inizio della settimana profetica. In tal modo, ho potuto contare esattamente 1260 giorni sul calendario solare gregoriano e arrivare all’esatta “metà della settimana” con il Sukkot, o festa delle Capanne (cioè il 4 ottobre 2017).

Dopodiché, per poter effettuare un calcolo analogo per i 1260 giorni della seconda metà della settimana, anziché fare iniziare i 1260 giorni dal 4 ottobre 2017, cioè all’inizio della festa delle Capanne / Sukkot, li ho fatti iniziare anche qui dalla fine della festa + tre giorni ulteriori (i due giorni di Shemini Atzeret, connessi con il Sukkot, e uno di Parsha Bereishit, rispettivamente 22-23 e 24 Tishri), che hanno portato al 14/15 ottobre 2017. Ciò mi ha permesso di concludere la seconda metà della settimana profetica precisamente all’inizio della Pasqua del 2021, che troviamo 1260 giorni dopo il 14/15 ottobre: il 28 marzo 2021.

Ciò significa che ci sono un totale di 19 giorni di “discrepanza” nell’ambito del calcolo dei 1260 + 1260 giorni della settimana profetica, poiché si “perdono per strada” 8 giorni tra il 15 e il 22/23 aprile 2014 e 11 giorni tra il 4 e il 15 ottobre 2017 (8 + 11 = 19). Pertanto è sembrato a molti che io abbia forzato la realizzazione di questa cronologia per avere entrambe le metà della settimana uguali, corrispondenti a 1260 giorni, e farle iniziare e finire a Pasqua.
Il calendario ebraico e quello gregoriano si distinguono per il fatto che in quello ebraico (calendario profetico) un anno è costituito da 360 giorni (cioè 30 giorni x 12 mesi = 360 giorni), mentre in quello gregoriano l’anno è composto da 365,2425 giorni, con l’aggiunta di un ulteriore giorno ogni 4 anni nel mese di febbraio (anno bisestile).
Il calendario lunisolare ebraico, per poter “stare al passo” con quello gregoriano, deve aggiungere alcuni mesi, perciò ogni 19 anni vi sono, nell’anno del calendario ebraico, tanti giorni quanti ce ne sono in un anno di quello gregoriano.

Il calendario ebraico è chiamato “lunisolare” (basato sulle fasi lunari) ed è progettato per la celebrazione delle festività religiose ebraiche, mentre quello gregoriano è un calendario esclusivamente solare, ossia basato sulla rotazione del sole.

Il calendario gregoriano conta in media 365,2425 giorni in un anno, mentre quello ebraico aggiunge un mese secondo lo schema che segue:

1. Il calendario ebraico aggiunge il tredicesimo mese (Adar Sheni o Adar II) a 7 anni ogni 19 anni. Il che è abbastanza complicato e comporta che, per 12 anni, ogni anno conta 12 mesi e una media di 354,37 giorni, ma che, nell’ambito di questi 12 anni, vengono disposti altri 7 anni (per un totale di 19 anni) che contano 13 mesi ciascuno, secondo uno schema tipo: 12… 13… 12… 12… 13… 12… 12…, e così via.

2. Il nostro 2014 (che poniamo come inizio della settantesima settimana profetica) corrisponde all’anno ebraico 5775, che ha 12 mesi e un totale di 354 giorni, perciò dovremo percorrere i 7 anni successivi e vedere come si ottengono i nostri 19 giorni di “discrepanza”.

Il Sukkot è una festa della durata di sette giorni, che inizia il 15 Tishri e continua fino al 21 (incluso). Poi seguono due ulteriori giorni legati a questa festività: Shemini Atzeret, chiamato anche “Ottavo giorno del Sukkot” o “Ottavo giorno dell’Assemblea”, che è una festa di due giorni (22/23 Tishri) a cui fa subito seguito Parsha Bereshit, che inizia il 24/25 Tishri. Questi ulteriori 3/4 giorni, sommati ai 7 giorni dall’inizio del Sukkot, costituiscono gli 11 giorni “aggiuntivi” o “perduti” nella nostra numerazione (dal 15 al 25 Tishri inclusi).

Ora, se dovessimo calcolare i giorni della settimana profetica secondo il calendario gregoriano, avremmo 365,2425 giorni x 7 anni = 2556,6975 o 2557 giorni e, all’interno di questi, avremmo anche un anno bisestile (poiché ce n’è uno ogni quattro anni). Quindi arriviamo ad un totale di 2558 giorni in sette anni solari/gregoriani.
Ma, perché il nostro calendario gregoriano combaciasse con quello ebraico, lo si è dovuto “ridurre” a 2539 giorni totali, “eliminando” 19 giorni.

Quindi, scopriamo che nella prima metà della settimana abbiamo 8 giorni che sono stati eliminati o troncati (dal 15 al 22/23 aprile 2014) e nella seconda metà della settimana ne abbiamo 11 (dal 4/5 al 15 ottobre, che però non è incluso) o, in altri termini, abbiamo 2558 giorni solari – 19 giorni “eliminati” = 2539 giorni solari.

Vediamo ora, dopo aver sovrapposto e riconciliato i due calendari, qual è il motivo per cui ci ritroviamo questi 19 giorni “in più” o 19 giorni “perduti” rispetto al nostro conteggio.

Nella tabella sottostante possiamo vedere, nell’ultima colonna a destra, la somma dei giorni per ognuno dei 12 mesi (eseguita da sinistra a destra). Come si vede, la cifra di 210 giorni è fissa, benché ovviamente le somme verticali siano irregolari. Vediamo che si hanno 210 giorni tra la fine dei primi 40 giorni della settimana (cioè la guerra Gog-Magog) e l’inizio della festa della Dedicazione. Questi 210 giorni corrispondono ai 7 mesi (di 30 giorni ciascuno) per la “purificazione della terra” dai resti della guerra Gog-Magog, secondo la profezia di Ezechiele 39:12: “La casa di Israele li sotterrerà per purificare il paese, e ciò durerà sette mesi”.

Nel nostro calendario, questo arco cronologico va dalla Pasqua, il 14/15 Nisan, fino a al 24/25 Kislev, per un totale di 250 giorni poiché, contando all’indietro, abbiamo 210 giorni di purificazione a partire dalla festa della Dedicazione + 40 giorni fino alla Pasqua che dà inizio alla settimana profetica. È notevole il fatto che la festa della Dedicazione sia l’unica festività non religiosa menzionata in modo significativo nel Nuovo Testamento (Giovanni 10:22-39), poiché le “festività bibliche” ufficiali sono sette: Pasqua (14-15 Nisan), Azzimi (15-22 Nisan), Primizie (16-17 Nisan), Pentecoste (6-7 Sivan), Capodanno (1 Tishri), Espiazione (10 Tishri), Capanne (15-22 Tishri).

Gli otto giorni di festa a metà della settimana mostrano la giustapposizione della figura dell’Anticristo rispetto a quella di Cristo nel Tempio di Dio, quando Gesù, in occasione della stessa festività, ha dichiarato la Sua divinità (Giovanni 10:36). Così la Bestia arriverà “fino al punto da porsi a sedere nel tempio di Dio, mostrando se stesso e proclamandosi Dio” (2 Tessalonicesi 2:4). Questa dissacrazione avrà luogo, in base al nostro calendario, nel giorno della festa delle Capanne / Sukkot / Festa delle Nazioni, a metà della settimana.

Facendo i calcoli finali nell’ambito del calendario ebraico, leggendo le righe dei mesi orizzontalmente, da sinistra a destra, abbiamo la prova ultima che vi sono 210 giorni tra la guerra Gog- Magog e la festa della Dedicazione, o 7 gruppi (cioè mesi) di 30 giorni + 84 gruppi nell’arco di tutti e sette gli anni (7 x 12 mesi = 84 gruppi di 30) + 2 gruppi di 30 (nell’arco dei 75 giorni), considerando anche i 15 giorni “extra” (cioè 75 – 60 = 15).

Quindi, 7 + 84 + 2 = 93 gruppi di 30 che, con l’aggiunta dei 15 giorni extra, ci portano a 93 + 15 = 108, dove figura il 18, numero primo del cubo della Nuova Gerusalemme in quanto 12.000 stadi x 660 piedi (1 stadio) = 7.920.000 piedi x 12 lati = 95.040.000 piedi / 5280 piedi (1 miglio) = 18.000 miglia o 18.

Il 18 emerge anche dai 2520 + 75 = 2529 giorni della settantesima settimana di Daniele, in quanto 2 + 5 + 9 + 5 = 18 e 2 x 5 x 2 x 9 x 5 = 45, cioè il Sole della giustizia di Malachia 4:2.

The Prophecy of Resurrection by the Messiah

 

The resurrection from the dead is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. It is the founding principle of Jesus ministry, and the quantifying truth of everything that Jesus affirmed.

• Jesus claimed that He had power over death.
• He claimed the ability to raise Himself from the dead.
• He said that He will raise from the dead, those who believe in Him.
• Jesus promised to destroy death forever.

As Paul wrote to the church at Corinth, they had a plethora of problems within the church.

1. Chapters 1-4, members fighting over who was the best teacher.
2. Chapter 5,  struggles with sexual morality issues.
3. Chapter 6, Christians suing other Christians, instead of working out their differences together in love.
4. Chapter 8, Christians using their freedom in a destructive way, causing others weaker christians to stumble in their faith.
5. Chapters 10-11, during their love feasts, some were gorging themselves, so that when the poor came for their one good meal a week there was nothing left, and they went away hungry. Others in the church were getting drunk before partaking of  communion.
6. Chapters 12 and 14, incorrect usage of spiritual gifts, caused disruptions during the teaching of the word of God.
7. Chapter 15, false teachers had apparently come into the church and began to tell the people that there was no resurrection from the dead.

As a result of false teaching that there was no resurrection, the members of the church at Corinth had begun to lose hope. The source of this incorrect doctrine, was secular, and material philosophies of the Roman culture. There were three of these ideologies that crept into the church, which countermanded the truth of the resurrection:

Stoicism: (New Age philosophy) at death, the soul merges into God. The personality is destroyed, the body is not raised again, only the spirit.^⁠1

Epicurean philosophy: (Atheism), there is no existence beyond death. Death is the end of all existence.^⁠2

Platonism: (Hinduism, Buddhism, New Age), only the soul is immortal. At the death of the body, the soul “migrates” into a new body. There is no physical resurrection. Many of the doctrines of Platonism were adopted by the Christian church by St. Augustine, the doctor of the Catholic Church. His early writings were greatly influenced by Plotinus’ Enneads, and became the foundation for the entire Christian thought.^⁠3

Paul is writing to the Christians at Corinth to correct these false doctrines, and to remind the church of the truth. In 1 Corinthians chapter 15, Paul writes that without the surety of a resurrection, “our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty” (15:4).

The word “Resurrection” came from three Greek words:

Anastasis: “to stand up”.^⁠4
Nekro: a corpse.^⁠5
Histemi: “to cause to stand up”.^⁠6

If we put these three words together we get; “The Lord causes a dead corpse to stand up”. It is evident that the Bible teaches a physical resurrection from the dead, that includes the spirit, soul and body. The body will die, but the sprit is eternal. The moment that a believer in Jesus dies, their spirit departs their body and rises to meet the Lord in heaven.

2 Corinthians 5:1-8 For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven, if indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked. For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life. Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee. So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

“…to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.”

We can be thankful that the church at Corinth was such a mess. Because of their misunderstanding in many of the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, we become great beneficiaries. As Paul writes to clear up the issue of “what happens after death”, we gain a clear understanding of the exactly what happens to us at the moment our body ceases to function.

Jesus promised those who place their trust in Him that although our body will die, He has the power to raise it to life. If we should perish before the Lord comes for us at the Rapture, when He arrives, He will resurrect our body and make it eternal as it rises to meet Him in the air.

1 Thessalonians 4:13 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

The church at Thessalonica has a similar misunderstanding of the resurrection and the doctrine of the Rapture. Paul writes to this church to clarify the important points of these two important doctrines:

• Those who have “fallen asleep”, a polite way of saying that someone had died, have been with the Lord since the moment of their death.
• When Jesus returns at the Rapture, He will be bringing their spirit with Him.

1 Thessalonians 4:15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.

• At the moment of the Rapture, those who are alive, will not rise first to meet Jesus in the air, the dead will have first priority.
• Those who died believing in Jesus and the hope of the Rapture, will be raised first, their dead bodies transformed into eternal bodies, then united with their spirit which has been with the Lord in heaven since their death.
• Those on earth who are alive, will then rise to meet the Lord, their bodies also being transformed into a new eternal body.

We should notice that the spirit of the person who dies believing in Jesus goes immediately to be with the Lord. There is no intermediate place called “Purgatory”, and no dwelling of the spirit on the earth for a period of time before it rises to meet the Lord after death. The process of death immediately sets the spirit free to ascend to heaven. We see this illustrated by Paul in the New Testament.

Paul speaks of an event that happened fourteen years previous in which he was stoned to death by some of the men from Lystra. In Paul’s description, at the moment of his death, he was immediately in the presence of the Lord, without delay.

2 Corinthians 12:2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a one was caught up to the third heaven.

The term “I know a man”, is a common usage of the third person that often made use of to avoid the appearance of boasting. Some of the Greeks during this time suggested that when speaking of your own experiences, the writer should use the third person so as to appear humble.^⁠7 Paul often said that he would boast only in Christ, and his own weaknesses. It is certain that this experience of death by stoning, was Paul’s description of an event that took place in his own life.

The precise timing of when Paul was stoned to death and immediately was in the presence of the Lord, is not known. It is likely that the “fourteen years” that Paul speaks of, was only an estimation. During this time, years were not accounted for in the same manner that we use today. Part of a year was still counted as a full year. The recounting of fourteen years could have been as little as one month or two from the first year, plus twelve whole years, and then a portion of the fourteenth year.^⁠8 With this in mind, Paul could be referring to a period when he would have been in Tarsus, his home town, just prior to his first missionary journey.^⁠9

There is a reference in Acts 14:19 where Paul speak of being stoned to death by  the men of Lystra after some who heard him speak believed that He was “a god”. Certain leaders believing that Paul was not a god, but instead a fraud, convinced the men of Lystra to stone Paul to death.

Acts 14:19 Then Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there; and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

Whether or not this event in Acts 14:19 is the true account of Paul’s death and ascension into heaven that he spoke of in 2 Corinthians 12:2, no one is certain. Based on this description by Paul, and what we know in regards to the timing of these events, this verse from Acts 14 is certainly a reasonable estimation of the time and place that this occurred.

Paul describes his death by stoning, and that he was immediately taken to “the third heaven”. This is not a mystical description of heaven as the Later Day Saints imply, it is simply a simplistic description of the true location of heaven.

First Heaven: The atmosphere of the earth where the birds fly.
Second Heaven: The location of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars.
Third Heaven: The unseen location where God dwells.

From this example in the New Testament, we can substantiate that the person who has placed themselves under the protection of Jesus sacrifice, will be taken immediately to heaven upon their death.

More important, at the precise moment of death, the hope of a resurrected body is assured us by Jesus

When our body does die, our spirit will immediately depart this temporary dwelling, and be present with the Lord in heaven. There is no delay, whereby our spirit will remain here on earth. There will be no “soul sleep”, as our soul lies in a state of suspension. The spirit that lives inside our body is eternal. At the moment of death, the spirit leaves the body. If we have placed our life in Jesus Christ, and we die trusting in Him, then our spirit will immediately be “present with the Lord”, in heaven. If we rejected the salvation that Jesus has offered us all throughout our earthly life, then our spirit will depart our body to descend into hell, were it will remain until the final judgement of all things.

Armed with these truths, Paul writes to the church at Corinth, beginning with the basics:

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.

First Paul reminds the church, that he has formerly taught these principles to them.

Second, they had in the past, received these facts as truth.

Third, these facts about the resurrection are the certainty in which we “stand”.

Finally, because of Jesus death for our sins, and His resurrection, we know that He has to power to raise to life our dead bodies. These are the truths whereby we are saved, if we continue to believe them all throughout our life.

1 Corinthians 15:12-14 Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen. And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty.

The truth of the resurrection was predicted in the Old Testament, and the certainty of this eternal life, made possible by the coming of the Messiah. The Savior would offer up His life in exchange for all human lives. His death would pay the price owed for all sins, and make eternal life possible. Only those who personally accept what the Messiah has done, by His death on the cross, have this forgiveness of sins and eternal life appropriated to their account.

If we die without receiving Jesus, we have no hope after death. The Bible gives no indication that there is a possibility of salvation after the body ceases to function, and the spirit departs the body.

Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment…

The prophecy of Psalm 49:15, is the subject of this 109^th Messianic prediction:

Psalms 49:15 “But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave, For He shall receive me.”

The Messiah is promised resurrection after He makes His life an offering for the sins of the world. As a result of this, He has promised all those who place their complete trust in Him, a resurrection also.

John 11:26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”

John 14:19 … Because I live, you will live also.

Paul closes chapter 15 of 1 Corinthians, by emphatically stating that should we reject the principle that Jesus was raised from the dead, in fulfillment of this 109^th prophecy, that our “faith is futile” (empty) and we are still in our sins.

1 Corinthians 15:17-20 And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! Then also those who have fallen asleep (died) in Christ have perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable. But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

Global SITREP A13-13: Chaos Magnified

 

03 June 2013: As if the chaotic situation in the Middle East could not stand another violent variable to be entered into an unsolvable equation, this is precisely what has occurred. And it has occurred in Turkey of all places. It's not the usual type one might expect of Kurd vs. Turk or Turk vs. Kurd violence. This time is different because it is Turk versus Turk civil unrest. This weekend saw the eruption of violent of anti-regime protests in approximately seventy of Turkey's largest cities by tens of thousands of anti-Islamic protestors ranging from nostalgic Ataturk secularists to the communist TKP (Türkiye Komünist Partisi). It would seem obvious that the anti-Islamic portion of Turkish society has had quite enough of the so-called Justice and Development Party (AKP) Islamist's led by Recep Tayyip Erdogan. It is impossible to predict where this violent uprising against Turkey's Islamist regime by Turkish citizens will lead except to say that violence begets more violence. So either this popular revolt against the Islamist government will escalate, or the Islamist government will direct their attention to the full-scale war going on in Syria and Lebanon to the south. 

Turkey also has serious international problems created by Erdogan's Islamists that are directly related to the Syrian civil war. Turkey, a new partner with the eastern bloc SCO alliance discussed in Global SITREP A10-13, is militarily at odds and ostracized from its new friends in the SCO, namely Russia and Iran, who both militarily support Bashar al-Assad's Ba'athist regime in Damascus with all manner of war materiel and fighting men. Turkey, as a NATO ally, would also be opposed to Russian shipments of S-300PMU-1/2 missiles and MiG-29M fighters through its Bosporus and Dardanelles Straits to the enemy regime in Syria. Turkey is also aligned with the terrorists of HAMAS in Gaza and against the Palestinian Authority controlled by Fatah and Mahmoud Abbas. HAMAS and Hezbollah are now at war with each other in Lebanon, and the Islamists of the Syrian FSA and Iraqi-led Al Qaeda-led Al-Nusra are killing each other with rocket fire across the Syrian-Lebanese border and an ongoing epic siege battle at al-Qusayr in Syria.

And then, not to be left out of the completely chaotic mix, there's Turkey's self-created problems with Israel. These are problems which the Islamist Turkish government under Erdogan's AKP leadership deliberately created via the flotilla in support of HAMAS terrorists. To make matters worse Turkey recently rebuffed an unnecessary but requested Israeli apology, which was PM Netanyahu's attempt at reconciliation, which appears to have been orchestrated at the behest of American President Barack Obama. Now, pardon me for being flippant about this situation, but just how many enemies can the Turkish Islamist government make in just a few months time? Could this be a new Guinness World Record for turning allies on all sides into enemies and other enemies into even greater enemies and then to go about making enemies of its own citizenry?

This is mind-blowing chaos magnified to be sure. And we've not quite arrived at the moment of Isaiah 17's fulfillment which I believe will be the catalyst for the final act of the Psalm 83 War. This is just craziness and there really is no way to make sense of it all... except to say that magnified chaos such as this meshes perfectly with our Lord Jesus Christ's Olivet Discourse description of the ever increasing frequency and severity of the birth pangs that herald the soon arrival of the 70th Week.
Look up, our Lord comes quickly!

Marana'tha!

Blue Kachina and Its Moon

 

Based on new developments, the Turrialba Volcan Research Team has designated the Turrialba object of interest, Bluebonnet, as the Blue Kachina of Hopi prophecy. This ancient prophecy tells us the Blue Kachina, appears first with some disruptions. Then comes the Red Kachina and the end of life as we know it.

Also featured are comparisons between current data and the predictions of Project Camelot, The00SkyView Team and remote viewer, Major Ed Dames. If they are right, this could be Planet X / Nibiru. GO

Moore Tornado, Oklahoma, Tornado Season 2013, A Cold Winter of Global Warming jumps to Heat Wave Spring and 2013 Hurricane Season thrashing the Atlantic Seaboard

 

(UPDATED Monday, 20 May 2013) The article below was written 24 hours ago on Sunday when the first phalanx of tornadoes passed through the state of Oklahoma hitting Shawnee, a suburb north of the metropolitan Oklahoma City area. After drawing to my readers’ attention forecasts anticipating a new and deadly tornado season for 2013 I documented six weeks earlier, I felt concerned that what I presented below was too intense. That I was, I at least hoped, exaggerating the onset of a late tornado season that would either match or be more dreadful and deadly than the historic 2011 tornado season.  I walked out of my office this afternoon, turned on the Weather Channel and saw reality had become science fiction just 90 minutes earlier. On the screen was the aftermath of a vast wedge tornado. The videos broadcasted of it made it look like it came out of the climate change disaster movie The Day After Tomorrow. (Also check out this article: Climate Change.)

It reached its greatest size as it came right over the heavily populated town of Moore, a southern suburb of Oklahoma City. The flattened rows of neighborhoods scourged by devil winds down to the bedrock bones of foundations, the mountains of cars piled like sand dunes of twisted metal laid against a hospital, the collapsed theaters and the elementary school full up of students in lock down, now just a heap–a Hiroshima wind blasted wreck… It was worse, if that is possible to imagine, than the devastation of Joplin Missouri, the city cut in half and cut down by an EF5 tornado in the 2011 season, killing several hundred. The Moore tornado cut a swath 1.5 miles wide with an outside wind wall cast before it knocking flattening a city in a wave of structure splintering force another mile from its epicenter. Some Doppler wind reports had the twister clocking 200 to 215 mph. This will be designated as an EF5 tornado, I am deadly sure of it. If you have not read this article posted yesterday forecasting what is just the beginning of this fatal season of twisters, please do, especially if you are in places that could be next in line for harm’s way:

Friends,
On 30 March 2013, I gave a reader, an American farmer named Ted, some weather forecasts that will appear in my forthcoming eBook Predictions for 2013 and Beyond. I wrote Ted when winter had a tenacious hold on the US central plains, the Great Lakes and north Atlantic seaboard states.

Today, I am sharing these documented observations on the worst week of tornado disasters in 2013. The twisters came spinning on 15 May in north Texas outside of the Fort Worth/Dallas area. At least 10-to-16 tornadoes were reported, three of which were a couple of EF3 and one 4 magnitudes, spinning at 150 to 200 mph respectively. These unleashed a house and town splintering intensity leaving many a foundation bereft of a standing structure, killing six and injuring over 100.

On Friday, Saturday to today, Sunday, tornadoes and thunderstorms hurled their twisters and golf ball and softball sized hail fury across the high plains in Western Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska then up into Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin. Up until recently, the jet stream had remained far south, nestling along the Gulf Coast for most of March and April into May, keeping tornado season quiet. Then the air currents of a bothered climate suddenly swung northward, drawing hot and humid subtropical Gulf moisture over the plains states to collide with Arctic air, the collision of such foments violent weather. On Sunday the Weather Channel correctly forecast the highest Torqon levels of the year anticipating the chance of seven tornadoes in a radius of 50 miles across the eastern portions of Kansas and Oklahoma and the Midwestern states affecting 25 million people. Twenty-four tornadoes and counting passed through these areas on Sunday. Monday will place the same areas under tornado threat of a Torqon of five.

Here is my tornado season forecast of 2013 sent to Ted on 30 March 2013:

Notice how the pattern of this year is similar to that of 2011, only more intense. Remember how 2011 had one snow breaker blizzard after another? Then a shift. Then April came.

Suddenly there was a dramatic change. The winter storms stopped and were replaced with an April tornado season the likes of which was for the record books in deadliness.

So, be mindful in the latter days of mid to late April for tornadic events to be as bad if not worse than 2011 mostly running again through the US southern States but be mindful of eastern Kansas.

Now, things [the drought] will soften in May but be mindful of the move of the jet stream to a higher latitude this year, again, just like what happened in 2011. This means some New England violent tornadic weather again and such lingering through the Illinois, Indiana, and Minnesotan regions.

I hope that helps with your planting needs.

Global SITREP A9-13 : Prophetic Dominoes All Lined Up!

 

U.S. Navy F-35 Lightning II - Israel Air Force "Adir"

28 April 2013: Preparations have continued which were postulated in the Eschatology Today article of 7 March 2009 entitled "Prophetic Dominoes." Global SITREP A9-13 will basically constitute an comprehensive update for that article. Those now four-year old strategic preparations have progressed to a very advanced, ready-to-go, now-or-never stage. Only the back-and-forth in relations between the United States and Israel regarding how to deal with the Iranian nuclear problem over these past fours years has kept a preemptive strike simmering in the interim. At the present time it does appear that a strike will occur before the summer months of 2013 have made their passage from our calendars. 

A very recent weapons agreement between the US and Israel has all the earmarks of being a virtual hardware upgrade reward for Israel's patience with the U.S., E.U. and U.N. diplomatic application of sanctions against Iranian nuclear progress. This is a hardware upgrade of such state-of-the-art American-made weapons being injected into Israel's armory that the total real-world military dominance I believe is made evident in the Lord's prophetic word found Jeremiah 49, Isaiah 17 and Psalm 83 is now completely unambiguous.

One piece of the new hardware is the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike stealth fighter (image above) which Israel will shortly begin building its combat squadrons around in replacing its aging F-16A Hawk models. Traditionally Israel gives its own name to its aircraft and the F-35 will be no different as it has been christened with the Hebrew name Adir meaning Great, but conveying a more 21st century meaning along the lines of Unrivaled Awesomeness,  which is an apt description of this aircraft's capabilities. Air superiority on steroids in other words. 

There is also another bit of hardware that was all but missed. It's so new that the usually weapons savvy Israeli publications like YNET and DEBKAfile didn't even notice it. YNET News.com even reported the exact opposite, headlining that no bunker busters were in this weapon agreement. (Oops, I hate when that happens!)  The New York Times reported it, but they even they played a low-key note in reporting it.  What is "it"?  It is the GBU-39A/B, which true to this weapons true capability passed straight through almost undetected in only being identified as "advanced focused munitions bombs" in the Times article on the arms deal.

Speaking of steroids, the GBU-39A/B is a flechette-on-steroids of high precision, high lethality, low-to-no-collateral damage aerial weapons.A dart of a bunker buster, if you will. This is the state-of-the-art weapon Israel could immediately deploy on its F-16I Sufa strike aircraft to hit nuclear related bunkers or human targets in downtown Tehran and barely disturb the person sleeping in the building next door. The US has had these weapons since 2008, and now, just five years later, Israel will get the GBU-39A/B too. 

The GBU-39A/B is light, only 285 pounds - but it has a high explosive (blast velocity = 5 miles per second) warhead that weighs 205 pounds. This bomb is more than 2/3rds high explosives. Makes a bad day for the bad guy his last day on earth no matter where he is hiding from a launch point that is 60 miles away - and that is well outside the range of most point air defense systems Iran or Syria possess. Additionally, this weapon's guidance system cannot be jammed or spoofed.

It is my own assessment that the North Korean nuclear test of 12 February 2013 was in-fact an Iranian test of a weapon with an HEU fissile core. A possible second test will confirm it.  Global SITREP A7-13 spoke to the strategic implications. More recent news articles have made clear with respect to the North Korean nuclear warhead test, and the new US military assessment regarding a missile-borne delivery system for that warhead, that Israel regards Iran as now having fully taken a stride over the red line it established in consultation with the United States. A strike on Iran looks as imminent as it ever did and Israel is more prepared than ever to deliver that strike.  Add to this the looming WMD situation in Syria and the conditions for a "perfect storm" in the Middle East to accelerate the toppling of prophetic dominoes are all too apparent.
