OH WELL! So Much for Diplomatic Dialog,
But not to worry! Iran will keep hanging Bait,
To give far left US liberals hope the Bible’s Wrong,
And a Middle East final battle of Armageddon Prophecy,
Of a final 1260 days of great Tribulation is Christian Baloney,
From an ancient document written by men of great Imaginations!
Mankind has indeed run to and fro, and his knowledge has Increased,
But in All his Secular Learning he has not been able to Believe in God’s Son!

BIRTH PANG NUMBER 1
CHAPTER 3 – BIRTH PANGS FROM THE BOTTOMLESS PIT
Written In the Late Seventies
Daniel 12:4 – But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
God advises us through Daniel that a particular circumstance will occur “at the time of the end,” specifically that “many shall run to and fro,” and, as a result, man’s “knowledge shall be increased.” Man, in his running to and fro, both across the earth and in space, did, in the twentieth century, accrue more knowledge about the earth than he grasped in the thousands of years from Adam’s creation until the beginning of that century. The data from hundreds of satellite eyes in space, used in spectrographic color analysis of the earth’s crust, has been allied with seismological data by a worldwide linkage of computer technology to allow man to discover an endless array of facts about the external and internal structure of the earth. Within the last thirty years man has more than doubled his factual knowledge of the exterior and interior of the earth, yet he has barely scratched the thin outer veneer of the unlimited knowledge of God, as prophesied by Daniel. This “time of the end” knowledge has begun to unseal many of the prophecies, and to open the “shut up” words of latter day events.
Today, when you look at the tectonic plate structure, found in countless numbers of books today, you see thousands of miles of lines between tectonic plates, which represent cracks in the earth that weave their way erratically down through the earth, eventually making contact with great underground lakes of red-hot melted rock called magma.
These geological faults are not the figment of scientific imagination.
They are no longer based on theory or hypothesis. They have, within the past hundred years, advanced from hypothesis to theory to fact. They are tremendous cracks in the crust of the earth that have the full potential to fulfill many of the terrifying events in the book of Revelation. Because these deep geological faults interconnect, they have separated the outer surface of the earth into vast chunks of crust called tectonic plates. These plates are usually named for the geographical area that lies atop them, and they are responsible for the earthquake and volcanic activity in these areas.
Just as a ship floats on water, so do these vast pieces of the earth’s crust float on deep oceans of hot liquid rock. They float in slightly different to opposite directions at differing speeds.
Movement is perhaps only a few centimeters every year in some zones, but can be several per year in some places, and, at times, can suddenly move several feet in a local area. They move to produce over ninety-five percent of the world’s earthquake activity, as well as more than ninety percent of the world’s volcanic activity. Seismic topography, along with horizontal surface and vertical satellite laser beam measurements, has now proven without question that the plates exist and move to produce most of the world’s earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. As the plates of the earth press against one another horizontal and vertical tectonic pressures often freeze vast zones together. As the plates strain against one another in titanic combat something finally snaps, and they break free in a local area. This abrupt loosing produces the massive vibrations we identify as an earthquake.
The Lord indicated “and great earthquakes shall be in divers places” in the last days. Man, in his running “to and fro,” has now gained the increase in knowledge to understand how earthquakes and volcanoes are produced by God’s creation. The same Christ, who uttered “and great earthquakes shall be in divers places,” already knew what man was to discover more than 1900 years later. The prophecy, “and knowledge shall be increased,” was fulfilled in the last century.
The Holy Spirit, who inspired these words of Daniel and all the other prophets, will use his prior creation, the earth, to fulfill these prophecies of earthquake, fire, and brimstone, and he will do it by his own power. The horrifying scenes of destruction and chaos presented by John in the book of Revelation, and by the Old Testament writers are largely descriptive of a tremendous geological upheaval of the crust of the earth by the power of its Creator.
Psalm 2:1-12 – Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing
? [2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, [3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
[4] He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
[5] Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
[6] Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. [7] I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. [8] Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. [9] Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. [10] Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
[11] Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
[12] Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Iran snubs proposed nuclear talks
September 8, 2009
Iran’s president has said that discussions over his country’s nuclear programme are “finished” and Tehran will neither back down nor negotiate further.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Monday that Tehran’s nuclear plans were an issue of rights, declaring that the country’s uranium enrichment efforts would continue.
“From our view point [discussion of] our nuclear issue is finished … we will never negotiate on the Iranian nation’s obvious rights,” he told his first news conference since he was sworn into office following a disputed re-election in June.
The comments come two weeks before the start of this year’s UN General Assembly meetings in New York and the deadline given by several Western nations for Tehran to respond to a proposal for talks.
‘Stalemate’
They also come as Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency, admitted on Monday to a “stalemate” in efforts to resolve questions over Iran’s nuclear programme.
An August 28 report by the UN nuclear watchdog said Iran had granted the agency’s demand for tighter monitoring of its Natanz nuclear fuel production site and restored some IAEA access to a heavy-water reactor site of proliferation concern.
But it also said Iran had increased its number of installed centrifuge machines by 1,000 to 8,300, boosting potential enrichment capacity, and was still blocking an IAEA inquiry into allegations it has tried to “weaponise” the enrichment process.
Except for Iran’s two new gestures of co-operation, “on all … issues relevant to Iran’s nuclear programme, there is stalemate”, ElBaradei said in remarks opening a quarterly meeting of the IAEA’s 35-nation board of governors on Monday.
In particular, he highlighted the blocked weaponisation inquiry, Iran’s refusal to suspend enrichment as demanded by the UN Security Council, and its failure to adopt an IAEA protocol permitting inspections beyond declared nuclear sites.
Monday’s developments come just a week after Iran’s senior nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, said his country was ready for fresh talks with world powers over its nuclear programme.
Jalili had said Iran had revised its proposal to the West and hoped “a new round of talks will be held for reaching a world full of progress and justice”.
Ahmadinejad’s latest comments and Elbaradei’s report provide fodder for Western powers trying to persuade Russia and China to back tougher sanctions against Iran.
Sanctions threat
Western nations, which suspect Iran is seeking to produce nuclear weapons, had given Tehran until the UN General Assembly meeting which goes from September 23-25, to take up an offer of talks on trade benefits if it stops uranium enrichment, or face harsher sanctions.
But Ahmadinejad said on Monday that “co-operation based on respect and justice is contradictory to setting a deadline”.
Instead, he invited officials from the so-called six powers – the US, Britain, China, Russia, France and Germany – to take a look at Iran’s forthcoming package of proposals addressing the “main challenges facing humanity”.
Iran is ready to negotiate and co-operate on making “peaceful use of clean nuclear energy” available for all countries and in preventing the spread of nuclear arms, he said.
The semi-official ISNA news agency said Iran was likely to unveil the package by the end of this week.
Iran, which has always maintained that it seeks nuclear technology only to make electricity, has often said nuclear arms have no place in its defence doctrine and has called on the US and other countries with such weapons to dismantle them.
The UN Security Council has already imposed three sets of sanctions on Iran since 2006, targeting Iranian companies and individuals linked to the nuclear programme.
It may next impose sanctions against petrol imports into Iran, which although the world’s fifth biggest oil exporter, imports up to 40 per cent of its petrol.
In an apparent move to counter any such sanctions, Iranian media reported that Venezuela had pledged to export 20,000 barrels of petrol a day to Iran, in a deal struck during a visit by Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan president, on Sunday.
