Begin Excerpt from Wilipedia

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

Some Mormon scholars believe that Quetzalcoatl, who they describe as a white, bearded god who came from the sky and promised to return, was actually Jesus Christ.

According to the Book of Mormon, Jesus visited the American natives after his resurrection. Latter-day Saint President John Taylor wrote:

[“The story of the life of the Mexican divinity, Quetzalcoatl, closely resembles that of the Savior; so closely, indeed, that we can come to no other conclusion than that Quetzalcoatl and Christ are the same being. But the history of the former has been handed down to us through an impure Lamanitish source.

“]

This idea was adapted by science fiction author and Mormon Orson Scott Card in his story America.

In the 2004 book The Bearded White God of Ancient America: The Legend of Quetzalcoatl, authors Donald and W.

David Hemingway examine a theory among Conquistador-era analysts that Quetzalcoatl may have been a New Testament-era Apostle of Jesus Christ, such as Saint Thomas. Donald Hemingway has previously taught religious studies classes at Brigham Young University. The aforementioned theory expressed by John Taylor in the Latter-Day Saint Movement is also discussed within his book in an appendix.

New Age

Various theories about Quetzalcoatl are popular in the New Age movement, especially since the publication of Tony Shearer’s 1971 book “Lord of the dawn: Quetzalcoatl and the Tree of Life” republished also under the title “Lord of the dawn: Quetzalcoatl, the plumed serpent of Mexico.”

End Excerpt from Wikipedia

I obtained the following from a source years ago. At age 79 I have no memory of its source!

MAYAN GOD QUETZALCOATL

The Aztec Emperor Moctezuma II initially believed the landing of Cortez in 1519 was Quetzalcoatl’s return. Cortes played off this belief to aid in his conquest of Mexico. The exact significance and attributes of Quetzalcoatl varied somewhat between civilizations and through history. Quetzalcoatl was often considered the god of the morning star and his twin brother, Xolotl was the evening star (Venus). As the morning star he was known under the title Tlahuizcalpante-cuhtli, which means literaly “the lord of the star of the dawn”. He was known as the inventor of books and the calendar, the giver of maize corn to mankind, and sometime as a symbol of death and resurrection. Quetzalcoatl was also the patron of the priests and the title of the Aztec high priest.

Most Mesoamerican beliefs included cycles of worlds. Usually, our current time was considered the fifth world, the previous four having been destroyed by flood, fire and the like. Quetzalcoatl allegedly went to Mictlan, the underworld, and created mankind from the bones of the previous races, using his own blood to imbue the bones with new life.

His birth was unusual; it was a virgin birth.

Quetzalcoatl was a god of such importance and power that nearly no aspect of everyday life seemed to go untouched by him. Secondly, as a historical figure, his actions would nor could not be contained by the History and thus eventually evolved into myth.

As a legend, he would signal the end of mortal kingship.

MAYAN CALENDAR OF END OF TIME:
The Mayan calendar, created thousands of years ago is amazing. It is esoteric and mysterious, like the people who invented it and then vanished. The Mayan calendar of time disturbingly and suddenly ends on December 21, 2012 at 11:11am. They seemed certain this was the end of the world.

BUDDHIST WHEEL OF END OF TIME:
On the other side of the world, Tibetan monks use the Wheel of Time to pinpoint when they think the end will come. Equally disturbing, the Wheel of Time also ends in 2012.

NOSTRODAMUS PREDICTED 2012 AS END!

End of Mystery Source

I DO NOT BELIEVE THE MAYAN CALENDAR, BUDDHIST WHEEL, OR THE NOSTRODAMUS PREDICTION SHOULD BE USED TO STATE THE END OF TIME WILL OCCUR IN 2012. I BELIEVE WHEN ALL THREE FAIL AND THE SUN RISES ON JANUARY 1, 2013, THE PROPHETIC CRY OF PETER 3:3,4 IS SURE TO REACH ITS GREATEST NOISE LEVEL ACROSS THE PLANET.

IT IS, IN MY OPINION, LIKELY TO BE QUIETED BY THE BEGINNING OF THE LAST WAR OF THE AGE OF THE GENTILES, WHICH WILL CLOSE WITH ITS FINAL GREAT BATTLE AT ARMAGEDDON SOME 3 & ½ YEARS AFTER IT BEGINS. I BELIEVE IT IS LIKELY TO BEGIN AT SOME POINT IN TIME BETWEEN 2013 AND 2015.

2 Peter 3:1-4,8,9 – This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: [2] That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: [3] Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, [4] And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. [8] But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. [9] The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

I am certain the final war of this age will close the age of the Gentiles, but I cannot be certain it will begin between 2013 and 2015 – The eventual occurrence is certain, but the precise WHEN is not! After the Mayan Calendar scare has past, the cry of “where is the promise of his coming?” will reach its greatest cry since the beginning of the Gentile age, increasing a worldwide belief that the Bible is a great hoax. Such a condition will set the stage for a fulfillment of Paul’s prophecy in I Thessalonians 5. The passage of the Mayan Calendar scare will cause many to breathe the sigh of a great relief that the “gloom and doom” prophecies from the Bible aren’t true, and create a relief mindset that its “sudden destruction” prophecies by God will not be occurring, and that “Peace and safety” are on the horizon. This will be the most likely time for the final war of this age to begin. God’s children are not in darkness, and should not be surprised regardless of when the last war of the Gentile age does finally begin. I will not be surprised if it occurs before 2013 or after 2015, because I know it is near, and believe it is likely to begin at some point in time between

2013 and 2015.

Romans 11:25 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

I Thessalonians 5:3,4 – For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

[4] But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

Ahmadinejad vs Ayatollah: Who will win Iran dust-up?

As Iran’s president squares off against the country’s chief ayatollah, the BBC’s Iran correspondent James Reynolds asks if, this time, President Ahmadinejad is punching above his weight.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad likes to argue. Iran’s president has made a career out of picking fights with (in no particular order): two consecutive US presidents; Iran’s entire opposition Green Movement; most countries in the European Union; the commanders of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard; and a sizeable chunk of Iran’s conservative MPs.

Perhaps feeling that this list was incomplete, Mr Ahmadinejad has now added one more opponent to his list: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei or, more simply, his own boss.

“I think Ahmadinejad is someone who has profound delusions of grandeur, someone who is not content playing second fiddle to the Supreme Leader,” says Karim Sadjadpour of the Carnegie Endowment in Washington DC.

“He sees himself as a revolutionary and a visionary leader… This smack-down of Ahmadinejad was somehow inevitable because Ahmadinejad was not content with merely being a president.”

The fight between the president and the supreme leader has broken out because the two men have different visions for the future of Iran.

Ali Khamenei wants to preserve the Islamic Revolution – exactly as Aya

tollah Khomeini bequeathed it to him more than two decades ago.

But Mr Ahmadinejad wants to change it. He and his allies want to take power away from the clerics.

Over-ruled

But in Iran, there is only room for one ultimate decision-maker. That is the supreme leader – not the president.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has a long-lasting alliance with the Revolutionary Guard, the military force which protects the Islamic Revolution. This alliance forms the bedrock of the Supreme Leader’s power.

The parliament takes the side of the ayatollah and the Revolutionary Guard.

Khamenei has already lost because he has no other option. He made [Ahmadinejad] president and now he is ruining him”

End Quote Abolhassan Banisadr Former Iranian president

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad may have considerable popular support among Iran’ s working cla

ss. But he has none of the levers of power possessed by the ayatollah.

So, when Mr Ahmadinejad tried to fire the Intelligence Minister in April, the ayatollah was able to overrule him easily. (The president responded by going into a 10-day public sulk.)

The Supreme Leader and his supporters in the Revolutionary Guard are also looking to what happens after 2013, when Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’ s term of office come

s to an end. The constitution bars him from a third consecutive term.

Mr Ahmadinejad has tried to position his close friend and former chief of staff Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei as his successor. Mr Mashaei has promoted the slogan “Islam without the clerics.”

As a result, the Supreme Leader’s office has gone after Mr Ahmadinejad, Mr Mashaei and their supporters. Some have been arrested – and even accused of sorcery.

Road to Versailles

One man who lives in a mansion outside Paris knows more than anyone else about what happens when a president and his supreme leader confront each other.

Abolhassan Banisadr was elected president of Iran in 1980. Like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, he challenged his Supreme Leader – in his case, Ayatollah Khomeini.

And Mr Banisadr lost.

He was impeached by parliament a year after taking office. And he has spent the last three decades in exile. He believes that, in the end, both Ali Khamenei and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will lose.

“Khamenei has already lost because he has no other option,” says Mr Banisadr. “He made this man – made him president – and now he is ruining him. So what is left to be done after this? As the Arab movements have been chanting, the only option for him is to go.”

But that may be more of a wish than a prediction.

The ayatollah and his powerful supporters in the Revolutionary Guard will not back down.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad may think he can win. But he might remember what happened to the last man who tried to do what he is doing – and who now watches life in Iran from his living room on the road to Versailles

Zechariah 14:2 – For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

ARIEL, THE LION OF GOD CITY

Jerusalem, is Ariel, which, in Hebrew, means “lion of God.” The city of Ariel has a long history of being overrun and, in the not too distant future, will be overrun again from the north for the last tine in its history, never to be conquered again by those who hate its Jewish history. The current Jewish inhabitants will return from the Negev to take it back from Islamic enemies

some 1260 days after it falls.

The attack on the city of Ariel will be accompanied by an array of terrifying natural phenomena unleashed by the God of Israel. The attack will be launched some 1260 days before the final battle in it, which

will be at Armageddon.

The initial attack begins with the first earthquake in the book of Revelation.

Isaiah 29:6,7 – Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire. [7] And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.

Revelation 6:12 – And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

And the war ends at the battle of Armageddon with the last earthquake in the book of Revelation. All of the physical thunder, earthquakes, great noises, storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire, are contained between the first and last earthquakes in Revelation.

Revelation 16:16-21 – And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. [17] And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. [18] And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. [19] And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. [20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

[21] And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

Isaiah 29:6,7 – Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire. [7] And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.

When it is all over, it will seem like a happy ending to a horrible nightmare to those who fought on the Lord’s side, but it will be like a handful of empty desires and unfulfilled dreams to all who were his enemies.

Isaiah 29:8 – It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.

All those nations that come against Israel at the battle of Armageddon, with dreams of satisfaction by conquest, will be rudely awaked by Christ’s victory, and will be faint and hungry because of unsatisfied desire in their utter defeat.

But for Israel, because of their deliverance by their Messiah, it will be the greatest victory they have ever known.

Zechariah 12:6-10 – In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem. [7] The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah. [8] In that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them.

[9] And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. [10] And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

Zechariah 13:9 – And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.

Zechariah 14:9,11,16 – And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one. [11] And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. [16] And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Malachi 4:1-3 – For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. [2] But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

[3] And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I

shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.

Hizbullah TV Report on Iranian Military Might: Iran May Respond to an Attack by Closing the Strait of Hormuz

Special Dispatch No. 3966

July 4, 2011

Following are excerpts from a TV report on Iranian military power, which aired on Al-Manar TV on June 20, 2011.

Reporter: “Iranian contempt for the Zionist maneuvers, considering them to be a ‘turning point’ in the level of fear among the Israeli enemy – the Iranian army believes that no matter how many Zionist military maneuvers there are, they would not be on a par with an Iranian response, which, according to Tehran, would bring an end to the Zionist entity.”

Gen. Mohammad Reza Naqdi, Commander of the Basij: “If the Zionist entity carries out any act of stupidity against us, our response will not merely be the liberation of Jerusalem. Let me tell you that within the next ten years, we will witness the end of this entity. It is too weak to attack Iran.

It is undergoing times of great weakness, and it cannot continue.

What it is doing is trying to convince itself that it is strong.”

Reporter: “The ruling out of the possibility of war against Iran, and the conviction that the Zionists, and even the Americans, are incapable of attacking Iran militarily, is attributed by politicians here to Iran’s military response capabilities, especially with missiles, which is part of the defense strategy which keeps the threat of war against the country at bay.”

Iranian Parliament member Sharsaf Hosni: “Today, Iran is fully capable of defending itself.

We have means to ensure that the Zionist entity and its American protectors are incapable of taking action against us. The Zionists know that attacking us is impossible. If they could, they would have done so long ago, because this is what they dream of.”

Reporter: “It is Iran’s undeclared military capabilities that are of concern to its enemies.

Any attack – whether limited or large-scale – will generate a response that will light a fire that will be difficult to extinguish. The Iranian response to the source of fire will be on land, air, and sea, especially in the Gulf region, where the oil supply will be halted, in the event that Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz.” […]

Do Not Turn U.S. Troops into Custer’s Last Stand!

Obama’S Offer to leave Troops in Iraq is a Mistake!

Do Not Leave Only 10,000 Troops in Iraq After 2011

In The Midst of a Nation That MAY Turn Against Them

And Terrorist Groups anxious to even a Score on Them

Iraq will Turn against U.S. no matter How many are Left

So pull them all out rather than hanging up 10,000 Targets

For multiple Terror Cells to fire on US as an isolated Bulls Eye

If 10,000 stay and suffer heavy losses: Blame Obama not Bush

Luke 14:31 – Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand

?

Most historians accept that “the Battle of the Bighorn,” also known as “Custer’s Last Stand,” and by the Indians as “the Battle of Slippery Grass Hill,” consisted of 600 white eyes and 1800 Indians, a three to one advantage.

However, some claimed a nine to one advantage. Benteen estimates 3000 or more as the number of Indians. Whatever the number, the American troops were slaughtered primarily because they were completely surrounded by a much greater number of enemies.

I am afraid this might be the case if we leave such a small number in Iraq surrounded by so many enemies.

Obama’s Iraq Withdrawal Flip-Flop

Tammuz 5, 5771, 07 July 11 12:09

by Gavriel Queenann

(Israelnationalnews.com)

President Barack Obama has offered to leave 10,000 troops in Iraq next year despite his pledge that all US forces would be withdrawn by the end of 2011.

Any extension of US military presence in Iraq depends on receiving a formal request from Baghdad, which must weigh the questionable readiness of Iraqi security forces against fears of increased terror attacks and unrest if US soldiers remain in 2012.

Baghdad is not expected to decide until September at the earliest when

the 46,000 US troopes who remain in the country will start heading home, but senior White House officials say they have worked out options to keep 8,500-10,000 active duty troops in-country to continue traiing Iraqi security forces in 2012.

The figures also were noted by foreign diplomats in Baghdad briefed on the issue. All spoke on condition of anonymity to frankly discuss the sensitive matter during interviews over the past two weeks.

Political Confrontations Expected

Any change in the US military withdrawal timetable in Iraq – after more than eight years and more

than 4,450 US military deaths – may spark difficult political confrontations for Obama as pressure builds to close out the Iraq mission and stick to pledges to draw down troops in Afghanistan as well.

Senator Harry Reid, the top senate democrat and majority leader, told reporters the cost of keeping US troops in Iraq, given a mounting US debt crisis and Iraq’s fledgling security gains, is no longer necessary.

“As Iraq becomes increasingly capable, it is time for our own troops to return home by the end of the year and for these precious resources to be directed elsewhere,” Reid said in the statement.

“There is no question that the United States must continue to provide support for the Iraqis as they progress, but now is the time for our military mission to come to a close.”

Reid estimated nearly $1 trillion has been spent in Iraq since the US invaded in 2003, including $50 billion this year alone.

Election Worries

Reid’s is the first statement by a top democrat to oppose Obama’s policy in Iraq, and may signal splintering Democratic support over his war planning just as he ramps up his 2012 re-election campaign.

Iraq has flown under Washington’s political radar for much of the past year, and democratic politicians and fund raisers who want Obama to end the war on-schedule are vowing to exert more pressure on the White House.

“With a false declaration that combat operations are over in Iraq, what is now Operation New Dawn has ironically become a forgotten war,” said Ashwin Madia, a former Marine who served in Iraq in 2005-06 and is now interim chairman of VoteVets.org. “That is about to change.”

The group has raised millions of dollars for Democratic Party candidates

PREVIEW OF TYPE OF BORDER INCIDENTS THAT WILL ONE DAY START THE FINAL WAR OF THIS AGE, LIKELY AT SOME POINT IN TIME TWIXT 2013 & 2015.

God’s prophecies He has fulfilled in the past are assurance to each new generation He will perform those yet to be fulfilled.

Isaiah 41:18-23 – I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. [19] I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together: [20] That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the Lord hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. [21] Produce your cause, saith the Lord; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob. [22] Let them bring them forth, and shew us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. [23] Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together.

BLOG 5 ENDED WITH AN EXPOSITION OF DANIEL 11:40

Daniel 11:40 – And at THE TIME OF THE END the tim

e of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.

The king of the south represents the initial northern extension of the land division allotted to the Grecian General Ptolemy, which extended from Egypt all the way to what is the present border of Israel with Lebanon and Syria. General Ptolemy was the first king of the south, and the residents of what is now Israel were his subjects. Countless numbers of territorial wars have raged between the kings of the north and the kings of the south. Consequently, the land we know as Israel has been the battlefield between the two, and the kings of the north conquered Jerusalem many times from the time of General Ptolemy to the End of the reign of Syrian King of the North Antiochus Epiphanes and the Maccabean Kings of the South in Israel.

King of the north Antiochus Epiphanes’ IV penetrated south into the Kingdom of the south Ptolemy on four occasions between Daniel 11:21 and 35, but his reign was finished many years ago in the brief age of the Maccabeans.

Antiochus Epiphanes was a prototype or type of Antichrist, but the final true Antichrist will soon arise.

The final king of the north is Antichrist. He will eventually rise in Greater Syria to lead a planned massive counter attack against Israel, the final king of the south.

The final Syrian king of the north will cunningly lay the trap into which he will lure the final Israeli king of the south to once again push north into Lebanon, as Israel has done several times in the past.

However, this time he will lead Daniel’s 10 horns in a massive counterattack to trap, surround, and smash the IDF, then quickly turn south to drive into the shocked glorious land of Israel, which will only stop at Beersheba, where a UN truce will be accepted between Islam and Israel. He will then put Egypt in his crosshairs after bypassing the 600 BC nations of Ammon, Moab, and Edom, which today make up Jordan. Jordan will be overthrown internally by the Palestinians that now make up 80 percent of today’s population under Muslim Brotherhood Influence.

Daniel 11:41 – He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

Eaau (Edom) was Jacob’s older brother.

Esau was a propane person in God’s eye because he despised his inheritance, giving it up for a pot of lintels made by Jacob.

The Edomites are the people descended from Esau, the son of Isaac and Rebekah and the brother of Jacob (Genesis 25:19-34). Esau was nicknamed “Edom” (which means, “red”) probably because he had red hair

Esau eventually settled in the area of Mount Seir and absorbed a people known as the Horites (Genesis 36:8-43, which refers to Edomite rulers as dukes in the King James Version; Deuteronomy 2:12)

When Israel came out of Egypt and wanted to pass through the land of the Edomites to enter into the Promised Land, the Edomites wouldn’t let them (Numbers 20:14-21)

The Edomites opposed Saul and were conquered under David and Solomon (1 Samuel 14:47, 2 Samuel 8:14, 1 Kings 9:26)

In the days of King Jehoshaphat of Judah, Edom joined with Moab and Ammon to attack Judah, but the Lord fought for Judah and defeated them (2 Chronicles 20:1-27, the famous battle that was led with praise)

The Edomites successfully rebelled against King Jehoram of Judah (2 Kings 8:16-22)

King Amaziah of Judah brought them back under subjugation (2 Kings 14:9-11)

The Edomites again attacked Judah in the days of King Ahaz (2 Chronicles 28:17)

When God rips apart the Red Sea during the vials of his wrath, he will punish the land of Edom severely. The spreading fault on the Red Sea floor extends northward through the Jordan River valley into Lebanon. One side of it runs under the Bible city

of Bozrah, which was the capital of Edom.

Obadiah 1,2 – The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord God concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle. [2] Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.

Jeremiah 49:17-22 – Also Edom shall be a desolation: every one that goeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all the plagues thereof. [18] As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the Lord, no man shall abide there, neither shall a son of man dwell in it. [19] Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan against the habitation of the strong: but I will suddenly make him run away from her: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her

? for who is like me

? and who will appoint me the time

? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me? [20] Therefore hear the counsel of the Lord, that he hath taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitations desolate with them.

[21] The earth is moved at the noise of their fall, at the cry the noise thereof was heard in the Red sea.

[22] Behold, he shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread his wings over Bozrah: and at that day shall the heart of the mighty men of Edom be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

A REAL SHOCKER TO ME ABOUT SYRIAN HUMOR!

July 9, 2011

http://www.tribulationperiod.com/

During my years of contact with Syrians in the Middle East and in USAFIHL’s it was with Syrian Military personnel, and they were reserved in character. I never suspected the Syrian civilians had a sense of humor. But the following transcript is proof that in the midst of being slaughtered by a dictator, they still have a sense of humor. It makes the point of showing the lies Bashar Assad has told about the character

of those who oppose his regime! I hear that since this clip they have a new V-2 Water Mellon and a Bean Flip.

I will send the video clip from which this clip transcript was extracted to all those on my e-mail list

I will not add you to my list unless you request it. It is absolutely free, and no requests for contributions are made.

June 24, 2011

Following are excerpts from a clip featuring residents of Homs mocking Bashar Al-Assad, which was posted on YouTube on June 24, 2011:

“Reporter”: In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate. We are in Bayadha, in Homs.

Following the reports about the presence of terrorists

in Bayadha in Homs, we began to search for them.

People, please direct us to the den of the terrorists. Now, we are about to find those terrorists. They won’t notice that we are coming, and we will film them out of the blue.

Gotcha!

Come over here. Come. We got you. You are the terrorists who have been shooting the demonstrators down. Let’s have a look at you. Let’s have a look at you.

What weapons are you using?

“Terrorist A”: A zucchini launche

r.

“Reporter”: A zucchini launcher

? What about you?

“Terrorist B”: A 0.5 okra machine-gun.

“Reporter”: What’s your weapon?

“Terrorist C: It’s a Russian one.

“Reporter”: Russian? It shoots okra as wel

l?

“Terrorist C”: Yes. Russian okra.

“Reporter”: What about you?

“Terrorist D”: An okra machine-gun.

[…]

“Reporter”: You infiltrators, you germs… So these are the infiltrators and germs that Bashar Al-Assad was talking about.

These are the terrorist gangs.

What, you have grenades as well?

“Terrorist A”: These are eggplant grenades, which we got at Tell Al-Shor.

“Reporter”: Nice to meet you, you germs. I see you are using crutches as a machine-gun?

“Terrorist D”: Yes. That’s a present, a seasonal present.

Don’t throw them, I want to cook them. What do you think about this?

“Reporter”: My God, you will liberate the country with such okra.

“Terrorist D”: Bashar Al-Assad has never seen such a thing in his life.
“Reporter”: This launcher shoots zucchini, eggplant, and okra. These are the terrorist gangs Bashar Al-Assad was talking about in his speech?

“Terrorist C”: The germs…

“Reporter”: Germs, sorry. First, they were scum, then they were gangs, then infiltrators, then terrorist gangs, then germs, and yesterday, Walid Mu’alem turned them into dogs.

[…]

Get nearer, don’t be afraid.

Keep holding it, keep holding it.

This is the Homs cannon. This is an RPG.

Made in Homs. It was made in Homs on June 24, 2011.

In the Bab Hood neighborhood these modern missiles were made… They were made in Homs.

They were made in Homs. They are shooting caps.

Demonstrator: There is no god but Allah…

“Reporter”: These are RPG grenades…

Demonstrators: There is no god but Allah, and Al-Assad is the enemy of Allah
